Universal Code of Conduct conversation hour for South Asia
by Krishna Chaitanya Velaga 09 Sep '21

09 Sep '21

Dear Wikimedians, As you may already know, the Universal Code of Conduct (UCoC) provides a baseline of behaviour for collaboration on Wikimedia projects worldwide. Communities may add to this to develop policies that take account of local and cultural context while maintaining the criteria listed here as a minimum standard. The Wikimedia Foundation Board has ratified the policy in December 2020. The current round of conversations is around how the Universal Code of Conduct should be enforced across different Wikimedia platforms and spaces. This will include training of community members to address harassment, development of technical tools to report harassment, and different levels of handling UCoC violations, among other key areas. The conversation hour is an opportunity for community members from South Asia to discuss and provide their feedback, which will be passed on to the drafting committee. The details of the conversation hour are as follows: - Date and Time: 16 September, 5 pm to 6:30 pm IST - Meeting link: https://meet.google.com/dnd-qyuq-vnd | add to your calendar <https://calendar.google.com/event?action=TEMPLATE&tmeid=NmVzbnVzbDA2Y3BwbHU…> You can also attend the global round table sessions hosted on 18 September - more details can be found on this page <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/2021_consultation…> . -- Krishna Chaitanya Velaga (he/him) Movement Strategy and Governance, Wikimedia Foundation
