Conference anti-harassment policy

The Ada Initiative co-founders helped write and promote an example conference anti-harassment policy for modification and reuse by conference organizers. Since the publication of the example anti-harassment policy in late 2010, hundreds of conferences have adopted an anti-harassment policy, many of them based on the example policy. The policy was the collaborative effort of many different conference organizers and community members, spear-headed by the Ada Initiative co-founders Valerie Aurora and Mary Gardiner.
