PyCon Pittsburgh. April 15-23, 2020.

Diversity

Our goal is to create an inclusive, respectful conference environment that invites
participation from people of all races, ethnicities, genders, ages, abilities, religions, and sexual
orientations. PyCon and its staff fully support and endorse the Python Software Foundation’s diversity statement:

The Python Software Foundation and the global Python community welcome and encourage participation by everyone.
Our community is based on mutual respect, tolerance, and encouragement, and we are working to help each other
live up to these principles. We want our community to be more diverse: whoever you are, and whatever your
background, we welcome you.

We’re actively seeking to increase the diversity of our attendees, speakers, and sponsors
through our calls for proposals, other open submission processes, and through dialogue
with the larger communities we serve.

This is an ongoing process. We are talking to our program chairs, program committees,
and various innovators, experts, and organizations about this goal and about ways they
can help us achieve it.

Help Encourage Diversity

Here are some ways you can help us build a more diverse conference experience:

We value diversity in the communities we bring together. We strive to provide balanced representation of the
richness of our collective human experience, and welcome your contributions to helping us achieve that goal by following
our code of conduct.
