==The Culture==
Remember that we strive for a positive, safe, and, yes, fun environment. Be respectful and mindful, and take time to learn from each other.  Also, while we believe that debate is healthy, the IFF Square is not the place for passionate, long-winded debates that usually involve a handful of people. We encourage you to continue your conversation in an opt-in channel setup for it, or in a private chat. If you need help understanding how to do this, let us know.


Lastly, we encourage you to read our code of conduct, privacy policy and community guidelines from our 2018 event, to get a better idea of what we expect from community members: https://www.internetfreedomfestival.org/wiki/index.php/Code_of_Conduct  Please feel free to DM me privately if you have any questions or concerns.  
GMs is a place for digital rights defenders to share regional and projects updates, ask questions, share expertise with each other, secure support and resources and, most importantly,  connect with other digital rights defenders from all over the world. In addition, we invite featured guest from time to time, giving participants the opportunity to learn from their expertise and ask questions. Most importantly, however, for the community of digital rights defenders that are dispersed throughout the globe, GMS help build trust, cooperation, and community. It is also a guaranteed place where individuals can cultivate collaborations and network throughout the year. Check out our:


==The Language==
* [[Community Updates|GM Notes]] from past meetups.


While English is the language used for the Glitter Meetup, we are conscious that it’s not everyone’s first language. The goal is to share not perfect English. If we are going too fast, please let us know. In addition, if you speak more than two languages, try to help if someone needs translation. Remember, we are all here to help each other! In the future, if there is interest, we will have these in other languages.
