I have requested an impact analisys from the RIPE NCC as requested by the task force. -hph ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Hans Petter Holen <hph(a)oslo.net> Date: Sun, 20 Oct 2019 at 00:31 Subject: Impact analisys of the new Code of Conduct To: rna-exec(a)ripe.net Mailing List <rna-exec(a)ripe.net> Cc: Athina Fragkouli <athina.fragkouli(a)ripe.net> The diversity task force has published a draft of a new code of conduct (CoC). Before moving this forward I would like to request an impact assesment from the RIPE NCC for the community to understand if there is an impact on the RIPE NCC and if this impact can be accepted. https://www.ripe.net/participate/meetings/ripe-meetings/ripe-meeting-code-o… For the record, I would also like to point out that there is an existing code of conduct in place: https://www.ripe.net/participate/meetings/ripe-meetings/ripe-meeting-code-o… The new code of conduct does however specify how the Trusted Contacts (now Code of Conduct team) is appointed and outlines in more details what actions can be taken. It can be argued that all theese actions can be taken allready, by the Trusted Contacts, RIPE Chair, PC and RIPE NCC meeting organisers today, but the new CoC makes this explicit. Yours sincerely, Hans Petter Holen RIPE Chair -- -- Hans Petter Holen Mobile +47 45 06 60 54 | hph(a)oslo.net | http://hph.oslo.net -- -- Hans Petter Holen Mobile +47 45 06 60 54 | hph(a)oslo.net | http://hph.oslo.net

Goals for Diversity
by Daniel Karrenberg 13 Jun '22

13 Jun '22

Hello, Mirjam suggested that I share a post to the RIPE list with this group: Deliberate change requires setting goals, working towards them and checking progress. So what diversity goals should we set ourselves? In gender diversity the popular/simplistic goal has been to reflect world population: classical 50/50 or contemporary with more categories. Is this the right benchmark? Shouldn't we set goals based on the diversity of groups that are closer to our community? I have seen some organisations setting diversity goals based on current ratios: "We will double the percentage of female graduates in five years time." Others base their goals on similar groups: "We will have double the percentage of female graduates compared with the average of similar programs in Europe." Yet others use statistics of a larger population they serve: "We will have a higher percentage of female graduates than that of secondary school graduates four years earlier." I strongly believe we should set ourselves realistic goals. I also believe that diversity has other parameters than gender and that our efforts on gender diversity should not lead to a loss of other diversity we have already achieved. What diversity goals should we set ourselves? Daniel
