CONFERENCE AND MEETING

CODE OF CONDUCT

 

The Halp Network, LLC (the “Event Organizers”) are committed to providing a professional environment at all of our events, welcoming people from diverse backgrounds. We expect our events to be a respectful, harassment-free environment for all people regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, physical ability, nationality, age, socioeconomic status, and belief. Event Organizers value the diversity of views, expertise, opinions, backgrounds, and experiences reflected among all attendees. In pursuit of those goals, speakers, staff, attendees, and volunteers (i.e. “participants”) at The Event Organizer’s meetings, conferences and events (i.e. the “event”), are expected to abide by the following code of conduct:

 

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR

• Demonstrate respect and consideration for all people.

• Avoid dominating the microphone or airtime.

• Communicate openly and thoughtfully with others, listen well to others, and be considerate of the multitude of views and opinions that are different than your own.

• Make room for a diversity of voices in group discussions, on panels, and the like. Be respectful in discussing and debating ideas.

• Demonstrate that differing perspectives are valued—critique ideas, not people.

• Be collaborative.

• Be mindful not to exert dominance over others.

• Act to avoid invading personal privacy of individuals.

• Be mindful of your surroundings and of your fellow participants during an in-person event.

 

Call 911 or alert Event/Site/venue security if someone is in immediate danger or if an immediate and serious safety concern exists. Report conduct concerns to an event contact so that concerns can be addressed responsibly and in a timely fashion. If you learn about the identities of any individuals involved in a conduct concern, respect and maintain the confidentiality of the individuals involved. If you are questioned as part of an investigation or review of a conduct concern, answer questions in a forthright and complete manner. If any leader or facilitator of an activity/session, any official of the platform, or any event official directs you to stop a behavior, please comply immediately. After participants comply, they may raise any questions or concerns to an event contact.

 

UNACCEPTABLE BEHAVIOR

• Do not intentionally talk over or interrupt others.

• Do not engage in biased, demeaning, intimidating, coercive, or harassing/hostile conduct or commentary, whether seriously or in jest (e.g., based on power differential, gender, sex, identity, expression, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity or national origin, religion, marital status, veteran status, age, body size or other physical appearance, disability, socioeconomic status, or other identities.

• Do not engage in personal attacks.

• Do not offer unwelcome sexual attention, including but not limited to making sexualized comments or jokes, displaying sexually explicit material, inappropriate touching, groping, or making sexual advances.

• Do not engage in stalking or unwelcome photography, screenshots, or recording of individuals.

• Do not retaliate against or disadvantage anyone for reporting a conduct concern or assisting in its resolution.

• Do not make bad faith accusations.

• Do not disrupt the event (e.g., sustained or disrespectful disruption of presentations) or engage in harm or threats of harm of any kind.

• Do not create/contribute to a safety threat or unsafe or exclusionary situation.

• Do not make audio or visual recordings of the event in any medium and do not distribute audio or visual recordings of the event (via social media or any other means). Screenshots of presentation slides or presenters are acceptable unless the presenter notes otherwise during their presentation. Screenshots of attendees or audience members are not allowed. Only the Event Organizers or their designees may do so.

 

Registration constitutes consent to audio and visual recording (and use and alteration of the recording) by the Event Organizers (or those it authorizes) during the meeting for non-commercial purposes aligned with the event organizers’ mission.

 

WHAT TO DO IF YOU HAVE A CONCERN

If you are the subject of unacceptable behavior or have witnessed any such behavior, please notify the Event Organizers. For in-person events, call 911 or alert Event/Site/venue security if someone is in immediate danger or if an immediate and serious safety concern exists. Confidentiality: If the person raising the concern, any identified individual target, or the accused or a witness asks an event contact for confidentiality of their identity while the concern is being addressed, reasonable steps will be taken to maintain it. The Event Organizers will not maintain confidentiality if -in its judgment and discretion – safety, law, an investigation, determination of a violation, or disconnecting/removing a participant from the event requires otherwise. Anyone who receives information during an investigation, however, must maintain its confidentiality; failure to do so is a serious violation of this policy, as is retaliation against any identified individual target, witness, or anyone who raises or helps resolve a conduct concern.

 

CONSEQUENCES THAT MAY BE IMPOSED

Anyone requested to stop unacceptable behavior is expected to comply immediately. After participants comply, they may raise any questions or concerns to an event contact. Event Organizer officials, including their designees, may take any action deemed necessary and appropriate, including immediate removal of participants from the Event at the participant’s own cost and to maintain distance and separation from other participants at all Event sites, or to leave any or all sites associated with the Event during the general timeframe of the Event. No refunds will be issued. Other/additional consequences for violation of the policy, to be determined after the event, may include, without limitation, being banned or suspended from participation in events or meetings in the future. Decisions regarding conduct shall be made by The Event Organizers or their designee(s), who will make the determination, in their sole discretion, to serve the best interests of its mission as reflected in this policy.
