+# Outreachy May 2024 Contribution Phase- Week 1
+
+Welcome to the Outreachy May 2024 contribution phase at [Moja Global](https://moja.global/). We are very excited to have you participate in our community 
+during this second phase of the selection process of the Outreachy program. Collaboration, transparency and peer encouragement is highly required in the 
+Moja global slack community. We have compiled a list of beginner friendly tasks spread across weeks to help you in this phase of your application. 
+Endeavor to follow the instructions as stated and don't forget to record your contribution after the completion of each task. Happy Contributing:)
+
+## Project 1: Developing a FLINT Forest Monitoring tool using Land Sector datasets
+
+Please introduce yourself in `#18-uutreachy` - we'd love to know where you come from and what you're interested in. Then proceed to the [FLINT Handbook](https://moja-global.github.io/Handbook/). If you'd like to install FLINT please review the instructions at [docs.moja.global](https://docs.moja.global) and as for help in `#05-installation-support`. We have some demonstration guides in the FLINTcloud and GCBM.Belize that you can follow to better understand the types of models we plan on using. 
+
+Once comfortable, please study the existing FLINTcloud templates and the Land Sector Datasets repository. Find an appropriate forest dataset and propose a location of interest (pick a forest you like!). Find another datasets of interest and document a workflow to extract and summarise forest squares in your location. Then share your findings on the `#18-outreachy` channel.
+
+## Project 2: Packaging FLINT for cross-platform usage 
+Study the FLINT and follow our [FLINT Developer tutorial](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_WECUlMWiUkyx5ohT2jglPSa58XmOhgY) and 
+[FLINT Development setup docs](https://docs.moja.global/en/latest/DevelopmentSetup/index.html) to get started. Formulate a release process 
+plan and share your findings on the `#18-outreachy` channel.
+
+## Project 3: Develop pipeline for high-throughput visualisation on Google Earth Engine
+
+Study the GCBM tutorials on our Youtube channel (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQd8VDrgFRk) to get started. Propose an example algorithm 
+that summarises a geospatial time series and describes its time and memory complexity on the `#18-outreachy` channel.
