Hi all,

 

The diversity design team is working on mechanisms to increase

the range of perspectives within the IETF, while maintaining high

standards of quality.

 

Our goal is to help improve the composition and dynamic of the

IETF, by finding ways to incorporate a wide range of perspectives

within the IETF, and specifically in the IETF management teams.

One way of achieving this is to ensure that participants differ

along many different personal, social, and professional

attributes. The expectation is that the greater range of

perspectives leads to considering issues more deeply and with

more sensitivity.

 

Community feedback is the most important input that helps us

determine the aspects are currently working well in the IETF in

this regard and those that are not. We cannot properly execute

the task of proposing new mechanisms or modifying existing

mechanisms to further these goals without **your** participation

and feedback.

 

We would like to help the IETF management make choices that

maximize the IETF's ability to include and encourage all

interested participants, and maximize their contributions to IETF

work.

 

On that basis, we are seeking input from people based on their

personal experiences about

 

* actions and activities that have worked well to improve the

  inclusiveness of the IETF process

 

* actions and activitiets that have not worked well to improve

  the inclusiveness of the IETF process

 

* actions and activities that have worked *against* inclusiveness

  of the IETF process

 

If you have experience with other technology based organisations

that have broad consultation practices, we would also like to

hear about examples of actions taken that work well to include

participation from diverse communities

 

Please provide us your input by sending an email to the diversity

design team at diversity-dt at ietf.org . You can provide

**anonymous** feedback by contacting either of the design team

leads Suresh Krishnan <suresh.krishnan at ericsson.com> and Kathleen

Moriarty <kathleen.moriarty at emc.com> who will anonymize it for

the rest of the members.

 

Thanks

Suresh Krishnan & Kathleen Moriarty
