THIS Space – code of conduct

THIS Space aims to be a friendly, safe and inclusive environment for everyone. We value the participation of all our speakers and attendees and we want you to enjoy the event.

This short code of conduct outlines expected participant behaviour during the event and explains what to do about an incident of discrimination, bullying or harassment if any attendee were to experience them. Organisers will enforce this code throughout the event. We expect cooperation from all participants to help ensure a safe and welcoming environment for everybody.

All participants are expected to:

• Be inclusive, considerate, respectful and collaborative.
• Refrain from intimidating, discriminatory, harassing or demeaning behaviour.

We do not tolerate harassment in any form. Examples of unacceptable behaviour include intimidation, harassment, bullying, discrimination, derogatory or demeaning conduct related to age, gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, race and ethnicity, language, disability, physical appearance, and religion. Sustained disruption of the event will also not be tolerated.

Participants found to be engaging in behaviour that violates this code of conduct will be asked to leave the event and incidents may be reported and dealt with in line with the University of Cambridge harassment procedures.

If you or someone else are subjected to, or notice unacceptable behaviour, notice someone in distress or have any other concerns, please contact the event lead Yoon Kim immediately, via private chat or email: thisspace@thisinstitute.cam.ac.uk. Danielle Doyle, THIS Institute Communications and Engagement Lead will be responsible for overseeing the code of conduct. All reports will be dealt with confidentially.

Thanks for helping make THIS Space welcoming for all!
