We are excited to introduce an initiative that not only reflects Drupal Mountain Camp's commitment to diversity, but also actively encourages the participation of underrepresented voices to promote inclusivity and diversity in the Drupal community. Open source communities were founded on the principle that diversity and varied perspectives strengthen the entire ecosystem. We are committed to providing opportunities for individuals from underrepresented groups to attend this year's event, share their experiences, and contribute to the thriving Drupal community.
