TCDT Research Lab Code of Conduct - Diversity and Inclusivity:
- Advocating Diversity: At TCDT Research Lab, we cherish diversity in every dimension, encompassing race, ethnicity, gender, age, sexual orientation, religion, and ability. We expect lab members to not only respect diversity but also to appreciate the enriched perspectives and varied experiences every individual contributes.
- Merit-based Opportunities: Committed to equality, our lab ensures that all opportunities — from recruitment to task assignments — are determined based on merit and qualifications, devoid of any discriminatory or biased practices.
- Inclusive Dialogue: We emphasize the importance of inclusive dialogue. Members should listen with intent, respect varied perspectives, employ inclusive terminologies, and abstain from presuming or resorting to stereotypes based on one's background or identity.
- Cultivating a Safe Ambiance: Prioritizing the well-being of all, TCDT Research Lab endeavours to nurture an environment devoid of hostility and unwelcome behaviour. Discrimination or any conduct that compromises our welcoming ethos is categorically prohibited.
- Fostering a Collaborative Spirit: Collaboration underpins our lab culture. We encourage members to embrace a spirit of teamwork, extend support where needed, and consistently seek to amplify diverse voices, ensuring every voice is valued and recognized.
By steadfastly upholding this Diversity and Inclusivity Code of Conduct, members of the TCDT Research Lab pave the way for a dynamic, inclusive research community. In doing so, we collectively celebrate diversity, stimulate innovation, and uplift the collective prosperity and well-being of all our lab members.
