  • Code of Conduct

  • Our in-person workshop spaces are dedicated to learning, but participants can’t learn if they don’t feel safe. GEO is committed to creating a harassment free environment for everyone. We do not tolerate harassment of anyone including participants, staff, or speakers in any form and reserve the right to remove anyone from a program if such conduct occurs. GEO appreciates your partnership in ensuring that the learning environment we share is one defined by mutual respect and inclusiveness, where dignity and diversity are valued.
