The Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo) supports diversity in the community: OSGeo community members can safely interact, contribute, share, learn, and be respected for who they are.  OSGeo is a large, international organisation made up of members with different cultural, historical, and language backgrounds. Diversity involves acceptance and respect for these differences and more, including ethnicity, race, cultural traditions, religious expressions, age, gender, socio‐economic status, mental or physical ability, and sexual orientation.  OSGeo strives to foster growth and innovation in the geospatial industry, and diversity must be respected to reach this goal.

If you are in an unpleasant situation where one person's behaviour is causing discomfort to you or someone else, consider one or more of these options:
 
−
 
 
−
* Raise a direct protest against the person who is causing your discomfort: talk to each other.
 
−
* Ask friends or others there directly for help - you are never alone, others will always help you.
 
−
* Contact event staff, members of the local organizing committee (LOC), or volunteers - there are there at your hand and usually know what to do.
 
−
* Contact anybody from the OSGeo Board of Directors either personally or by email, private and in confidence, at board-priv(at)osgeo(dot)org.
 
−
* You may also contact the President of OSGeo directly at president(at)osgeo(dot)org.
 
−
* If you think it is appropriate, contact event security staff or local law enforcement.
