+ == About Fedora Diversity and Inclusion Team

+ 

+ At your event, please introduce the Fedora Diversity and Inclusion Team to your attendees.

+ The explanation includes what the team does in the Fedora community and some of our upcoming goals.

+ If anyone wants to learn more, you can share our https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/diversity-inclusion/team/[team introduction page] with them.

+ 

+ What is the Fedora Diversity and Inclusion Team::

+ Fedora Diversity and Inclusion team is committed to fostering diversity and inclusion in Fedora community.

+ The team works towards this goal by focusing on efforts including (but not limited to):

+ * Creating content and organizing events to spread awareness about diversity in Fedora within and outside the Fedora community (like Fedora Women's Day!)

+ * Supporting community building and engagement activities to foster inclusion

+ * Coordinating with Fedora sub-projects to foster Diversity and Inclusion in the community

+ * Supporting programs committed to building diversity and inclusion in Free and Open Source Software communities

+ 

+ What the team is working on::

+ The team is working on a different range of tasks to support diversity and inclusion efforts in the Fedora Project.

+ Recently, at the 2018 https://flocktofedora.org/[Fedora Flock conference], new additions were made to the conference, including gender-neutral bathrooms, a quiet room, and communication preference stickers.

+ This supported our existing effort to draft https://pagure.io/fedora-diversity/issue/54[event inclusion guidelines] for Fedora event organizers.

+ The intention is to share it widely with others in the community (and possibly other communities) to follow best practices for event organizers.

+ Additionally, we hope to launch a https://pagure.io/fedora-diversity/issue/62[demographic survey] of the Fedora community in early 2019.

+ 

+
