Human-Carnivoran Interactions Symposium

Code of Conduct

Purpose of the Code of Conduct

 

The organizers of “Human-Carnivoran Interactions: Past, present and future”(from now on HCI) are committed to providing a safe and inclusive space, with respectful and equitable treatment for everyone. This code is meant to guide delegates, convenors, committees, collaborators, and people who might be involved with HCI in other ways.

Approach and principles

This code draws on an intersectional perspective, considering the interlocking character of gender, sexuality, race/ethnicity, class, age, disability, and religion/creed as axes of discrimination and oppression.
