Re: [Diversity-talk] UK Chapter Feedback on Diversity Statement
Thanks fro this. Soren - Diversity statements are important for diversity and inclusion within global spaces. To me this is one of the big priorities that OSM has to address in order to flourish as a global map network and community. To be honest, I am happy to have a phone call with you and Rory if you have more questions about 'why.'

Re: [Diversity-talk] Community track at SOTM
HI Christine, thanks for this note and reminder. It has been a fairly difficult week personally, so I do send my respect to the Diversity community for the radio silence and rush planning. I constructed 3 sessions based on the past 3 years we have had to build out community and diversity conversations at SOTM. Each works as building blocks. I gather we need 3 separate sessions? The upside is that my flight just got delayed so I can keep working on this. The summary (for cowriting) https://docs.google.com/document/d/1yYq4meuX82gVb255LBATHqaNLBakOL-UXWeNA05ieis/edit Background - listed in my diary entries and from our conversations. We have only a few hours to submit. I will do so once i sync with Trudy.

Re: [Diversity-talk] [Osmf-talk] First Meeting of Diversity and Inclusion Special Committee
Hi folks, thanks for this dialogue and for holding this space. Last week was very 'head down' for my day job, so I am later to the conversations. Some thoughts on a way forward: - *Research : *Building an action research and qualitative feedback loop could help build trust. I'll reach out to Maggie on this. - *Metrics and planning: *we should connect with wider communities in the open space on this. Who could help on this front? eg. https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Heather%20Leson/diary/392119 and https://chaoss.community/ - *Community advocacy* for a chair role is key. Happy to talk with anyone considering this role. And, write up a draft plan. (some resources <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Lq1ZO4DhxUXv0-CiFxz0Yv8mmryD-fw0yAZZwR7U1V8/edit> ) - *DISC role *- Overall, consistency and planning is key. Thus, I recommend monthly checkins, input into the OSMF board f2f and tying the activities to the various SOTM activities and local chapter meetups.

Re: [Diversity-talk] Community track at SOTM
Thanks for the question, Christine. We were hoping to string together 3 sessions for a morning. This way we can build on how we might progress on community. My draft suggestion is to consider some of the topics from fosdem, the osm swot and the community survey. Next I will start a collaborative draft. In this draft, we will shape the themes and formats. I am on work mission this week so I wont be able to tackle this until the weekend. The good news is that ive been contacted offlist by some allies who are keen to have productive make sessions Thanks again Heather On Tue, 11 Feb 2020, 15:31 Christine Karch, wrote: > Hi, sounds like a good idea.

[Diversity-talk] What can we do in OSM
Hi Folks, I've been thinking about Allan's call to share Strengths, Opportunities, Weaknesses and Threats. Have you added anything? I added some comments today. If you don't feel comfortable adding details or creating an anonymous account, but want to give your points, I and others could happily help. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_SWOT I asked Allan (board) what they will do with this data and input. <https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/apm-wa/diary/391918#comments> It is a large accountability line. "As for a “community curated OSM strategy and project roadmap”, let’s please take one step at a time. There is a faction within OSM’s community that has expressed strong opinions that nothing is broken and thus no actions are needed by the Board, period."

Thanks for this discussion. When we wrote the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team Code of Conduct and process, I started collecting examples of practices across open communities. You can find this list here. <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Lq1ZO4DhxUXv0-CiFxz0Yv8mmryD-fw0yAZZwR7U1V8/edit> The HOT code of conduct can be found here <https://www.hotosm.org/code-of-conduct.html> Our Resolution process - guidance for how to improve <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Humanitarian_OSM_Team/Working_groups/Community/HOT_Resolution_Process> Our OSM Etiquette guidance has some of the 'sentiment' https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Etiquette What is missing is - the norms, culture and, sadly, the enforcement to make the wider community space a safe and inclusive space. I really appreciate how Mozilla has worked to openly discuss diversity and inclusion. https://wiki.mozilla.org/Diversity_and_Inclusion_for_Communities_and_Contributors I even asked their wider network for guidance on how we should run or 2019 SOTM session. There are many allies in the open space who have been here. Let's learn from them.

Re: [Diversity-talk] Your talk submission for SotM 2019
Dear colleagues, I hope that your summer was grand. I am researching formats for this. One thing that might help us is to tackle what is inclusive language and what are some of the measures to improve diversity - specifically in the board and working groups. Thoughts? "The OSM community is global and diverse. Building on last year's Open Heroines conversation, we will co-create a space for OSM to talk about how to improve diversity and inclusion in our amazing project. All welcome." How can OSM be more diverse and inclusive? Join us to share your lessons and ideas on how we might grow and support a Diversity and Inclusive approach in OSM. This is an activity taking place across other 'open' communities. We will ask participants to co-create plans and identify how we might incorporate it into small and big activities within the global network. The format will be co-created with some potential outcomes. The goal is to be a conversation with interactive, participatory methods and some small group work.

Hi folks, I thought you might be interested in these questions to consider Heather -- Forwarded message - From: eirwin Date: Fri, 28 Jun 2019 at 20:48 Subject: Re: Dear Men | Robot Ethics | FF 4 Good | Summertime To: Diversity & Inclusion in Open Source < diversity--inclusion-in-open-sou...@googlegroups.com> Just a quick update. For those that asked, here is a summary of questions <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1cOUgTwwLBKIgeVfFMvUnK2y64ixr07h1RcM36f0jC2Q/edit#> we saw on the 'Dear Men' calls, and some of the responses/links we gathered. I feel like having a workshop to help cis-men set goals, and create an accountability partner might be a next logical step, but interested in what you think. I can see how much the idea of Lucas's book club would be welcomed here too. Maybe we can pilot that later this summer?

[Diversity-talk] Fwd: "Dear Men" D Open Source Call | Newsletter Submission Request
HI Folks, perhaps of interest heather Heather Leson heatherle...@gmail.com Twitter/skype: HeatherLeson Blog: textontechs.com -- Forwarded message - From: Emma Irwin Date: Wed, Jun 5, 2019 at 1:38 AM Subject: "Dear Men" D Open Source Call | Newsletter Submission Request To: Diversity & Inclusion in Open Source < diversity--inclusion-in-open-sou...@googlegroups.com> Hi everyone, Hope all is well, and the sun is shining in your corner of the world :) Two quick updates. Following-up on the newsletter idea, I have a form!

Also, the D call <https://events.mozilla.org/dearmeninopensourcethiscallisf> this week is a different one, and based on the conversation before, where I think we agreed that bringing people in from the edges is critical to make progress. To that end, my call is an experiment in direct-invite of those folks - with promise of a safe space to ask questions, and support in goal-setting. We'll see, I hope I don't spend the hour alone! If you can help direct people who would benefit, I would be grateful - here's a great sample tweet <https://twitter.com/sparklingrobots/status/1136049562836037632> from Drupal's @Sparklingrobots.

[Diversity-talk] Diversity and Inclusion session - SOTM
HI folks, building on last year's Open Gender Monologues, I am submitting a session for SOTM on Diversity and Inclusion. The deadline is today but I am hoping we can all co-create the plans. "The OSM community is global and diverse. Building on last year's Open Heroines conversation, we will co-create a space for OSM to talk about how to improve diversity and inclusion in our amazing project. All welcome. " How can OSM be more diverse and inclusive? Join us to share your lessons and ideas on how we might grow and support a Diversity and Inclusive approach in OSM. This is an activity taking place across other 'open' communities. We will ask participants to co-create plans and identify how we might incorporate it into small and big activities within the global network. The format will be co-created with some potential outcomes. The goal is to be a conversation with interactive, participatory methods and some small group work. See more about this topic: https://blog.mozilla.org/internetcitizen/2019/03/04/open-source-inclusion/ https://opensourcediversity.org/ https://github.com/mozilla/diversity All the best Heather Heather Leson heatherle...@gmail.com Twitter/skype: HeatherLeson Blog: textontechs.com ___ Diversity-talk mailing list Code of Conduct: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Diversity/MailingList/CodeOfConduct Contact the mods (private): diversity-talk-ow...@openstreetmap.org
[Diversity-talk] Feedback - Open Gender Monologues & Gender and Diversity chat SOTM 2018
Hi folks, The Open Gender Monologues had a great chat with some tips and tactics to improve participation and healthy engagement. Great to hear some positive experiences too. We also co-hosted a session at the SOTM with Geochicas plus Kate and I. In this session, we asked the participants to give input in how to be more supportive. They made statements "I will" "We should stop" and "we should start/continue". People wrote their ideas/thoughts on sticky notes (in private) then we added them to the charts. https://pads.ccc.de/WXSlyAqS8t Celine, Kate and I will work to blog this. Joost will be sharing with the community Birds of a feather today too. Back to it.

This month the Public Lab Code of Conduct <https://publiclab.org/conduct> turns two years old!

This month, on OpenHour, we will spend a moment reflecting on how implementing the Code of Conduct has gone, share a conversation about updates that might need to be made, and hear experiences other groups have had in exercising their own codes of conduct.
