Code of Conduct

We are committed to making FKFJ an inclusive and welcoming event.

Sadly, technology events have a notorious reputation for harassment. We've set these ground rules to make it abundantly clear that this kind of behaviour is not acceptable, so that everyone can feel comfortable attending FKFJ events. Everybody in the FKFJ community is required to abide by this code of conduct at the events and on any online channels.

The rules

We do not tolerate abuse, harassment, or discriminatory behaviour of any form. Specifically:

  1. Do not engage in homophobic, biphobic, racist, transphobic, ableist, sexist, or otherwise prejudiced behaviour.
  2. Do not harass people. Harassment includes stalking, unconsented physical contact, threatening behaviour, and unwanted sexual attention. Dressing or acting in a certain way is not consent.
  3. Everyone's personal space is their own. If you are asked to leave someone alone, or to leave their village, you must respect this.
  4. People may not want to be filmed or photographed. Respect their wishes when taking photos. Do not publish identifiable images of people without their consent.
  5. Sexualised language and imagery is not appropriate in public, or in sessions which do not deal directly with such topics.
  6. Aggression and elitism are not welcome — do not belittle people for their knowledge or experience.
