Introduction

Skooliepalooza (SKP) prides itself on the quality of our community, our work, and personal accomplishments of our community. We expect everyone who participates to conduct themselves in a professional manner, acting with common courtesy and in the common interest, with respect for all of our community.

It is the expectation that Skooliepalooza community members will adhere to the Skooliepalooza Code of Conduct (CoC).

Inclusivity and Appropriate Conduct

Skooliepalooza is open to participation by anyone with an interest in being a Nomad. We encourage Intentional Connection, Sound Health, Holistic Wellness and Positive Creative Outlets. We have three founding rules: Be Nice, Leave No Trace, and Pay it Forward.

Personal attacks and negative comments on personal characteristics are unacceptable, and will not be permitted. Examples of personal characteristics include, but are not limited to age, race, national origin or ancestry, religion, political affiliation, gender, or sexual orientation.

Additional behaviors which are also violations of this CoC include, but are not limited to, threats of violence against an individual or group, threats of professional, community, and/or project sabotage, unwelcome sexual attention in any form, engaging in behavior that may bring Skooliepalooza into disrepute, and refusing to cease inappropriate conduct when requested to do so.

Retaliation

It is also expressly forbidden for anyone to retaliate against a person who brings a complaint under this CoC, or who assists in investigating such a complaint. Retaliation may take the form of, among other actions: further personal attacks (public or private); actions which undermine an individual’s professional status and/or status with their employer, coworkers, clients, or community; actions which threaten the individual’s privacy, physical person, well-being, home, and/or family. Acts of retaliation will be treated in the same manner as any other violation of this CoC.

Reporting

You have multiple options to report a alleged CoC violation:

  1. Email [email protected]
  2. Reach out to the moderators of the Skooliepalooza Whatsapp community

Acting in Good Faith

Any allegations that prove not to be substantiated, and which prove to have been made maliciously or knowingly to be false, will be viewed as a serious community offense and a violation of this CoC.

Conclusion

We encourage appropriate and collegial relationships among community members; however, members must be sensitive to conduct that may be considered offensive by fellow members and must refrain from engaging in such conduct.

In all interactions with the community, use your professional judgment, and keep the discussion focused on moving our project and our community forward in a positive direction for all.
