Code of Conduct

We value the participation of every member of our community and want to ensure that every contributor has an enjoyable and fulfilling experience. Accordingly, everyone who participates in the Turing Way project is expected to show respect and courtesy to other community members at all times.

Kirstie Whitaker, as PI of this project, and all project members, are dedicated to a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, age or religion. We do not tolerate harassment by and/or of members of our community in any form.

We are particularly motivated to support new and/or anxious collaborators, people who are looking to learn and develop their skills, and anyone who has experienced discrimination in the past.

To make clear what is expected, we ask all members of the community to conform to the following Code of Conduct.

The Code of Conduct document has been written in 4 parts: Overview, Details, Reporting and Enforcement.

The last part acknowledges all sources that this Code of Conduct has been built upon.

1 Code of Conduct: Overview

The Turing Way is a community-oriented and -led project. We value the involvement of everyone in the community. We are committed to creating a friendly and respectful place for learning, teaching and contributing. All participants in our in-person events and online communications are expected to show respect and courtesy to others at all times.

To make clear what is expected, everyone participating in activities associated with the Turing Way project is required to conform to this Code of Conduct. This Code of Conduct applies to all spaces managed by the Turing Way project including, but not limited to, in-person focus groups and workshops, and communications online via GitHub.

The co lead-investigator of The Turing Way - Dr. Kirstie Whitaker and Dr. Malvika Sharan - are responsible for enforcing the Code of Conduct. They can be contacted by theturingway@gmail.com. Please note that Kirstie is on Maternity leave for the rest of 2022, therefore your emails will be handled by Malvika (you can directly contact her by emailing msharan@turing.ac.uk). If you prefer not to contact the project leads, you may also contact Anna Krystalli, who is our ombudsperson.

Reports may be reviewed by other members of the core development team, unless there is a conflict of interest, and will be kept confidential.
