**Stepping down as GNOME Internships organizer**
For the past nine years, I’ve been actively involved in our internship initiatives with Google Summer of Code and Outreachy. As an [alumnus of these programs](https://feborg.es/category/gsoc/page/3/ ), I firmly believe they are great ways to [onboard new contributors to GNOME and help students start a career in open-source software](https://feborg.es/summertime-sadness/ ).
However, as my work responsibilities have grown and I’ve started some personal (non-software) projects, I’ve found myself with less time and energy for this type of contribution.
I’ve been discussing this with key people over the past year, and I plan to stay around to hand over responsibilities to other members of the Internship Committee. I will continue helping manage things for 2024, but I won’t be directly involved beyond that.
If you’re interested in helping with these activities, please reach out to the [GNOME Internship Committee](https://handbook.gnome.org/foundation/committees/internship.html ).
