  1. To increase diversity by attracting under-represented groups to the ASF
  2. To retain diversity by maintaining a healthy, positive and socially dynamic environment where all groups feel welcome
  3. To actively monitor diversity within the ASF so that we can and if necessary apply strategies to encourage and attract under-represented groups

 

What does diversity mean?

...

  • We need to know how much diversity we currently have. (If we are using ethnicity and gender then we need to benchmark what levels of ethnicity and gender we currently have)
  • We need to find out what the elements are that make under-represented groups stay in a community or the ASF (e.g what may be important to one group may not be as important to another...)
  • We need to find out what the elements make under-represented groups leave a community or the ASF
  • We need to find out how we can
  • We need to set a KPI to measure the retention of diversity from an initial benchmark

  • Monitor the level of diversity (could be related to publishing details of diversity...)
