Open Food Facts exists thanks to the citizens who give their time and talent in many different activities. We are a large international family that gives a unique character to this beautiful project, made for all, by all! 🌍✨
🍊 A consumer who is concerned with their health & that of their planet?
🧑🎓 Are you a student needing some practical volunteering experience?
🧑💼 A retired professional looking for a project to keep those neurons firing?
👩💻 A tech wizz? 🕺 Diversifying your skillset?
There are lots of different ways to contribute!
Ways to get involved at a glance (non-exhaustive)
Note #1: it’s not a set-in-stone team list and will probably evolve over time; so if you have skills that don’t match any of the topics mentioned here, don’t worry, please fill in the form, telling us how you would like to contribute to the project. You can also choose to be in several teams, if you feel like it or have the time!
Note #2: You don’t need to be an expert in the field.
First step: sign up on the Contributor Skill Pool
To facilitate the involvement of our contributors and allow the project to grow in a more dynamic way, we are setting up a Contributors Skill Pool, as well as teams of volunteers by theme.
✅ The aim is to match your skills and interests to the needs of the project.
Whether you are already a very involved contributor or have just arrived and want to participate, we invite you to fill in the form below. (All personal data you enter will be kept confidential and used only by the permanent team to contact you).
🖊 CONTRIBUTOR SKILL POOL FORM (duration: 3-5 minutes)
Then what?
You will be called upon for one-off projects or regular actions, depending on your wishes & availability.
We would also like to be able to organise meetings and webinars (online or in person) in order to exchange and advance the project together.
