All attendees, speakers, sponsors, trainers, and volunteers at our conference are required to follow the code of conduct. Organizers will enforce this code throughout the event. We are expecting cooperation from all participants to help to ensure a safe and inclusive environment for everybody.

Code of Conduct

DrupalCamp Manila is an event that brings together a community of professionals from around the world who use, develop, design, and support the Drupal platform. DrupalCamp Manila is dedicated to providing a safe, inclusive, welcoming, professional, harassment-free conference experience for everyone regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, age, religion and any other status protected by laws in which the conference or program is being held. The DrupalCamp Manila Code of Conduct ensures we collectively create this kind of experience. This document expresses the behaviors we expect at DrupalCamp Manila , what is unacceptable behavior, how we address unacceptable behavior, and how to ask for help if needed. All participants, including attendees, organizers, speakers, trainers, sponsors, exhibitors, vendors, volunteers, and event staff at DrupalCamp Manila are required to abide by the DrupalCamp Manila  Code of Conduct. Event staff and their designated representatives will enforce this code throughout the event. We expect cooperation from all participants to help ensure a safe environment for everyone.

Expected Behavior

All event participants are expected to behave in accordance with professional standards, the DrupalCamp Manila  Code of Conduct, applicable laws, and to the extent not contrary to the above, their respective employer's policies governing appropriate workplace behavior.

WE ARE CONSIDERATE

DrupalCamp Manila is an international event that attracts diverse people from a wide variety of ethnic, cultural, and religious backgrounds. We acknowledge that cross-cultural communication can often be complicated and encourage everyone to consider the impact of their words and actions on those with different backgrounds and experiences.

WE ARE WELCOMING

One of the greatest strengths of the Drupal community is our inclusiveness. Making all participants feel welcome and included at DrupalCamp Manila is everyone’s job.

WE ARE RESPECTFUL

All participants should strive to treat each other with dignity and respect, regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, age, religion and any other status protected by laws in which the conference or program is being held.

WE ARE COLLABORATIVE

If and when misunderstandings occur, we encourage people to work things out between themselves where this is practical. Where support is beneficial to achieve this, participants agree to ask for help. People are encouraged to take responsibility for their words and actions and listen to constructively-presented criticism with an open mind, courtesy, and respect. If people do not feel able to work out an issue between themselves, they are encouraged to seek the advice of a third party to help mediate.

To get help mediating you may contact the Drupal Community Working Group at drupal-cwg@drupal.org or with an online incident report.

WE LEAD BY EXAMPLE

At DrupalCamp Manila , leadership roles include, but are not limited to Program team / Track Chairs, Speakers, Summit Leads, Trainers, Prenote organizers, Selection Committees, Social Media Leads, Q&A moderator, Photography Team Leads, Sprint leads, and Mentors. Leadership is not an award, right or title; it is a privilege, a responsibility, and a mandate. As leaders, they must represent the best version of the Drupal community in what they say and do.
