Ally Skills Workshop
(Based on The Ada Initiative’s Ally Skills Workshop.) The Ally Skills Workshop teaches men (in technology) simple, everyday ways to support women (in technology) in their workplaces and communities. Participants learn techniques that work at the office, at conferences, and online. At the end of the workshop, participants will feel more confident in speaking up to support women, be more aware of the challenges facing women in their workplaces and communities, and have closer relationships with the other participants. Women and genderqueer folks also attend the workshop, both to learn techniques and to take part in the discussion, but the scope of the workshop does not include teaching women how to respond to sexism. |
