Welcome - December 2023
Hello Changemakers! Happy December!
Given that we have SO many new members to the community each month, we do monthly posts from Girl Up HQ that go over community guidelines and provide a place for introductions.
⭐ Introductions ⭐
Please feel free to introduce yourselves in the comments! Introduction ideas include:
- First Name
- Pronouns (only if you're comfortable)
- Your Region of the World
- What About Gender Equity Makes You Passionate
- Fun Fact
📓 Community Guidelines 📓
As a reminder, Girl Up has a zero-tolerance policy for discrimination, bullying or harassment of any kind, including online, physical, emotional, or sexual harassment; hate speech; or rude behavior of any kind. All Girl Up programs are open and inclusive of any youth regardless of race, religion, ethnicity, political belief, socioeconomic status, sexuality, or physical ability. Respect, tolerance, and understanding of others’ backgrounds and beliefs must be exemplified at all times.
Girl Up reserves the right to ban participants from in-person or online engagement if they disobey the zero-tolerance policy. Furthermore, our first priority is to keep youth safe on the platform and we ask all adult participants to keep that in mind, as we will remove and block any correspondence that violates our guidelines. A participant who experiences or witnesses conduct that violates this policy should immediately inform a Girl Up staff member, consultant, or trained volunteer. Participants may choose to report content on the community platform or email [email protected] to report inappropriate content or abuse.
For more information, you can find the safety and security policy here.
We look forward to meeting everyone!
-Anna, Associate of Community & Impact at Girl Up HQ
