Code of Conduct
We, the organisers of NodeSchool Sydney, are dedicated to providing a harassment-free
community for everyone, regardless of sex, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, disability,
physical appearance, age, body size, race, nationality, or religious beliefs. We do not tolerate harassment
of community members in any form. Participants violating these rules may be sanctioned or expelled from the
community at the discretion of the organisers of NodeSchool Sydney.
Harassment includes offensive verbal or written comments related to sex, gender identity or expression,
sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, age, body size, race, nationality, or religious
beliefs, deliberate intimidation, threats, stalking, following, harassing photography or recording,
sustained disruption of talks or other events, inappropriate physical contact, and unwelcome sexual
attention. Sexual language and imagery is not appropriate for any events at NodeSchool
Sydney meetups or in any related communication channels. Community members asked to stop any
harassing behaviour are expected to comply immediately. Sponsors and presenters are also subject to the
anti-harassment policy.
If a community member engages in harassing behaviour, the organisers of NodeSchool Sydney
may take any action they deem appropriate, including warning the offender or expulsion from the community.
If you are being harassed, notice that someone else is being harassed, or have any concerns, please contact
an organiser immediately.

organisers.
The organisers of the above communities developed this Code of Conduct to govern their respective events
and communication channels. We used PDX Python's anti-harassment policy and the Geek Feminism Conference
anti-harassment policy as a starting point. This Code of Conduct, like its inspirations, is licensed
