Diversity and Inclusion

We kindly ask for a statement about Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in your country.

What is the legal status of same-gender relationships and/or marriage in your country? Can our members travel safely with their same sex partner? What about transgender members, are they safe?

How safe is for a woman to travel alone in your country?

Is your venue accessible for wheelchairs and other disabilities?

Income generation

In the LOI, you mention that "the LOC is happy to offer that the attendees will not be charged for attendance to the event. Charges could be levied on exhibitors and that will be decided in due course".

More a remark than a question, the gains from FOSS4G are one of OSGeo's main income sources. Please consider this when going further with your proposal.
