WOMEN COMMENTS
-
THE SEXIST TONE IN THE CHANNELS DEMOTIVATES THEIR PARTICIPATION
-
WOMEN FEEL A SYSTEMATIC TARGET OF DISCRIMINATION IN THE CHANNELS
-
ATTENTION CALLS ARE USUALLY ATTACKED (IF THEY ARE WOMEN)
-
THE EXPRESSION OF EXPERIENCE IS NOT ACCEPTED, WOMEN ARE CONSIDERED AS NOVICE
-
WE NEED TO DEFINE CODES, SANCTIONS, REPORTING MECHANISMS
-
SPECIFIC CALLS TO EMPOWER WOMEN
-
PROMOTION OF WOMEN NETWORKS AND SPACES, TO EMPOWERMENT
-
PEER-TO-PEER TRAINING
-
ATTENTION TO MAPPING-PROJECTS ISSUES WITH IMPACT ON WOMEN

MEN COMMENTS
-
DISCRIMINATION IS NOT BASED ON GENDER
-
CULTURAL DOMINATION OF EUROPEAN / NORTH AMERICAN MEN
-
HOSTILITY BY SPECIFIC PROFILE: FANATIC-MAPPER, EXPERIMENTED VS NOVICE
-
NO FORMAL IMPEDIMENT TO PARTICIPATE = NO DISCRIMINATION
-
LACK OF INTEREST/PARTICIPATION MUST BE RESPECTED
-
DOUBTS ON THE IMPACT IN THE MAP, OF THE LACK OF DIVERSITY
-
ATTENTION CALLS ABOUT AGRESSIVE TONE IN THE CHANNELS ARE IGNORED
-
DO NOT SEPARATE GENDERS BUT DO MORE PARTICIPATORY ACTIVITIES
-
DO NOT VICTIMIZE WOMEN, RAISE AWARENESS IN GENERAL
-
FOCUS ACTIVITIES ON DIVERSITY IN GENERAL, NOT JUST GENDER
international gender representation survey on osm
GENERAL COMMENTS
-
HOSTILITY IS GENERAL IN OSM CHANNELS, GENERALLY FROM HIGH LEVEL MAPPERS, IT DEMOTIVATES PARTICIPATION
-
ALL GENDERS NOTICE SPECIFIC HOSTILITY TOWARDS PEOPLE ASKING TO CHANGE THE TONE
-
NEED FOR MODERATION IN CHANNELS
-
NEED TO ADVOCATE FOR COURTESY VALUES IN GENERAL, INTEGRATION, SUPPORT OF THE NOVICE
-
NEED FOR INTEGRATION OF DIVERSITY IN GENERAL, NOT BASED ON GENDER
-
INCLUSIVE LANGUAGE
-
DEFINE CODES OF CONDUCT
-
AWARENESS AGAINST HIERARCHIES
