LOADED BOW                   

AGREEMENTS


01  We maintain confidentiality. What is said here stays, what is learned here leaves here.

02  What we permit, we promote. Discriminatory, harmful and hurtful behaviour will not be tolerated. 

03  We prioritize the safety of folks of Indigenous and racialized communities through protocol, program design, language, and centering of voices and power.

04  Our diversity includes expansive experiences of gender. We mind our pronouns and avoid assumptions.

05  We choose to make room for conversations that can be difficult and we expect it to be messy at times. We recognize that this is not a neutral space, that the risks and wounds we carry with us are not equal.

06  We remember that conversation is the natural way that humans think together.

08 We stay curious and acknowledge that curiosity nor understanding should be conflated with agreement.

09 We give ourselves permission to change our minds.
