This new version is designed to reflect the growth of the Drupal community since the original Code of Conduct was adopted in 2010 and to help foster a safer, more inclusive, and harassment-free environment for everyone. While it retains the same basic structure as the previous document, much of the text was rewritten to make it easier to read. It also includes new elements inspired by other widely-used open source codes of conduct.
Over the last few months, a group of Drupal community members from the Community Health Team have been working on updates to the Drupal Code of Conduct, with the assistance of a diverse group of community leaders and stakeholders from around the world.
Once more, we have a selection of updates from across the Drupal community detailing the work they have been doing and ways in which you can contribute. This month, we speak with members of:
The last 18 months have been difficult for many in our global community. The global COVID-19 pandemic has taken loved ones from us too soon. Social and political upheaval around the world have fractured civil discourse, and set back the cause of civil rights. Economic uncertainty has affected our jobs and our prospects for the future. For some, the present crises have brought up memories of more distant loss.
In a year in which we have all experienced loss, remembrance and reflection helps us heal.
Our first Drupal Initiative update was posted in December 2020 showcasing the contributions that drive our community of innovation and highlighting how you can get involved.
