Code of Conduct

This page outlines our Code of Conduct, emphasizing respectful and inclusive behavior for all participants in our community or event.

Software Freedom Day is dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, or religion. We invite attendees to come to SFD in a spirit of curiosity, friendliness, open-mindedness, and respect. Any kind of harassment will not be tolerated.


At the conference venue, you agree to:

Be kind and sensitive to the people around you and respect the boundaries of other attendees.

Attempt to resolve differences of opinions peacefully and appropriately for a professional environment.

Listen with empathy when someone has a different perspective and give suggestions for improvement.


This Code of Conduct applies to the venue of SFD 2022 Conference, pre-event and post-event informal gathering, and all events organized by the organizing committee of Software Freedom Day.


If you are being harassed, notice that someone else is being harassed, or have any other concerns, please contact someone from the organizing committee. Thank you for helping make this a welcoming, friendly event for all.
