Recruiting new members to the Code of Conduct Committee

The Carpentries are committed to providing a welcoming and supportive environment for all people, and our Code of Conduct (CoC) is the framework for this commitment. The Code of Conduct Committee (CoCC) is responsible for managing the Code of Conduct, handling reports of conduct violations, and advocating for the CoC in the community.

The Carpentries Code of Conduct Committee is currently recruiting new members. We seek 3-4 community members who are passionate about ensuring that The Carpentries is a welcoming space, who have time to dedicate to the committee, and who bring diversity to the committee. In addition, it is beneficial, but not necessary, to have previous experience with this kind of work.

The Code of Conduct Committee will be leading two community calls in June to discuss the CoC, the committee, and answer questions about the open positions. These calls are in two different time zones to accommodate interested community members around the world.

• Tuesday, June 22, 11AM UTC
• Tuesday, June 22, 8PM UTC

Please see the Community Discussion etherpad to sign up.

We will start reviewing applications on July 1.
