[Diversity-talk] Your talk submission for SotM 2019

[Heather Leson]

Dear colleagues,

I hope that your summer was grand.

I am researching formats for this. One thing that might help us is to
tackle what is inclusive language and what are some of the measures to
improve diversity - specifically in the board and working groups. Thoughts?

"The OSM community is global and diverse. Building on last year's Open
Heroines conversation, we will co-create a space for OSM to talk about how
to improve diversity and inclusion in our amazing project. All welcome."

How can OSM be more diverse and inclusive? Join us to share your lessons
and ideas on how we might grow and support a Diversity and Inclusive
approach in OSM. This is an activity taking place across other 'open'
communities. We will ask participants to co-create plans and identify how
we might incorporate it into small and big activities within the global
network. The format will be co-created with some potential outcomes. The
goal is to be a conversation with interactive, participatory methods and
some small group work.
