The premier gathering for people working to build a better digital world.

In a moment when technology feels increasingly centralized, extractive, and controlled, Wilding is a provocation: what happens when we loosen rigid systems and create the conditions for communities and technologies to evolve collectively, naturally, intuitively?

Inspired by ecological practices of rewilding, where gardens and forests are left to regenerate through their own intelligence, this theme explores what it means to let our digital worlds grow wilder, more diverse, and more alive. It means community-owned mesh networks, federated platforms, open protocols, community archives and tools built on transparency, trust and mutual flourishing.

At MozFest, Wilding is an invitation to restore balance: cultivating infrastructures rooted in care, mutuality, and collective action.
