[diversity] Introduction
by Chhavi Shrivastava 20 Apr '17

20 Apr '17

Hello, I am Chhavi, a design student from IIT, India. I started contributing to Fedora Design team last December. I did a mini project about stories of girls in an IIT : the skewed ratio project <http://chhavishrivastava.com/skewedproject/>. I guess you might like it :) Apart from that, I am helping bee form a FOSS women group here in our college. I have basic video editing skills, so I am happy to help with the upcoming video. Diversity in a community is something I am passionate about because I have experienced the subtle stereotypes and the invisible barriers in such a progressive technical university. I can only imagine out there, how much we need efforts like these! If there is anything I can help with, I will be glad to :) I have joined the IRC with nick chhavi_ and am part of fedora-design and fedora-women. Looking forward to this journey with you guys! Warm Regards :) -- *Chhavi Shrivastava* *|* Pre-Final Year Undergraduate Student (B.Des) *|* Department of Design, Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati *|* +91 7896892375 | *www.chhavishrivastava.com <http://www.chhavishrivastava.com>* <#> <#m_8561300185549816083_>

by Amita Sharma 17 Apr '17

17 Apr '17

amsharma reported a new issue against the project: `fedora-diversity` that you are following: `` We are trying to resolve "How does Diversity interact with other sigs/groups? What concrete and planned efforts are there?" Here are some example - ==================== 1. Providing resources to enable the Fedora contributors to foster diversity and inclusion in their teams. 2. Using survey data, identify key teams to focus on for Diversity and Inclusion strategy 3. CommOps and Diversity - Diversity leveraging CommOps for Outreach, CommOps helping Diversity to understand community and its’ needs. 4. Ambassadors and Diversity - Create strategies targeted towards onboarding contributors from underrepresented groups at conferences and events. 5. Marketing and Diversity - Create content on Fedora Magazine to promote awareness about diverse Fedora community Next Action Item is to breakdown these points into smaller action items. I believe we already have some tickets, which can be mapped to this issue. like - https://pagure.io/fedora-diversity/issue/23 https://pagure.io/fedora-diversity/issue/20 https://pagure.io/fedora-diversity/issue/19 https://pagure.io/fedora-diversity/issue/11 https://pagure.io/fedora-diversity/issue/9 `` To reply, visit the link below or just reply to this email https://pagure.io/fedora-diversity/issue/25

bee2502 reported a new issue against the project: `fedora-diversity` that you are following: `` The International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia[1][2][3] is observed on May 17 and aims to coordinate international events that raise awareness of LGBT rights violations and stimulate interest in LGBT rights work worldwide. It would be great if we have some event on this day. In #11, @tatica suggested we have a panel, however I am open to discussion on this. #21 links the strategy plan for FLISOL and could be used for reference. However, I suggest we have a more active presence for LGBT Awareness Day. `` To reply, visit the link below or just reply to this email https://pagure.io/fedora-diversity/issue/22
