Calling
for speakers!

We are calling for volunteers and talk proposals to craft / build / hack an experience that every participant will never forget. It could be targeted at the general audience or a technical deep-dive you're excited to share about.

Send us your ideas and proposals here: https://sessionize.com/geekcampsg2024

What is
Geekcamp?

We're a free, one-day event that brings together hundreds of geeks in Singapore to have fun sharing about technologies and knowledge, connecting the community through curated talks, by geeks, for geeks.

Some of our past topics include databases, cybersecurity, 3D printing, dependency management, verifiable computing, blockchain, hardware version control, algorithms, internet scanning, compilers, interpreters, statistics, machine learning, authentication, orchestration, open-source and many more.

What People Said

Code
of
Conduct

All participants are expected to adhere to the CoC both onsite and online. The guiding principle is respect and care for self and others. Examples of unacceptable behaviours include (not exhaustive):

  • Offensive comments related to gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, mental illness, neuro(a)typicality, physical appearance, body size, race, or religion
  • Gratuitous or off-topic sexual images or behavior in spaces where they are not appropriate
  • Threats of violence or incitement of violence towards any individual, including encouraging a person to commit suicide or to engage in self-harm
  • Publication of non-harassing private communication or another member's personal information without their explicit consent

The CoC applies to all GeekcampSG attendees, including organisers, sponsors, speakers and talk attendees.

Reporting violations

In the event that you need to report a CoC violation:

  1. Reporting methods
    1. On-site
      • Approach any Geekcamp organiser (wearing an Organiser shirt)
      • Alternatively, head to the registration desk and inform the volunteers that you would like to report a violation.
    2. Online: Discord
      • Create a ticket at Contact Us > #report-issue. A new, private ticket channel will be created under the Tickets category, where you can send a moderator more details on the violation.
      • If you feel uncomfortable creating a ticket, feel free to reach out to us via private message.
  2. What to include when reporting
    • Identifying information of the participant doing the harassing
      • On-site: Name and outfit description
      • Online: Discord username (Username#1234), server nickname
        • Discord username: Right-click on the participant’s profile picture.
        • Server nickname: The name displayed on top of the message.
    • The behaviour that was in violation
    • The approximate time of the behaviour
    • The circumstances surrounding the incident
    • Evidence of the violation, if available
      • Online: A screenshot of the conversation where the violation occurred

We will respect confidentiality requests for the purpose of protecting victims of abuse. At our discretion, we may publicly name a person about whom we’ve received harassment complaints. We will not name harassment victims without their affirmative consent.

Consequences

The participant will face the following, in order of increasing severity:

  1. Time-out

    If a participant has exhibited concerning behavior, as outlined in the rules, they may be pulled into timeout. During timeout, the participant will have a discussion with our Code of Conduct representatives about any concerning behaviors until we have come to an agreement.

    1. On-site

      The participant will be separated from other participants and have a discussion with our Code of Conduct representatives in a private setting.

    2. Online

      The participant loses access to all channels on the Geekcamp server other than timeout. Only the timed-out participant and the mods will be able to see the conversation.

  2. Kicked from Geekcamp Conference
    1. On-site

      The participant will be escorted off the premises and will not be allowed to re-enter.

    2. Online

      The user will be banned from the Geekcamp Discord server.

  3. Escalation to authorities
    1. On-site

      Geekcamp organisers will liaise with the venue host to initiate actions such as reporting to building security and/or police for their follow-up action.

    2. Online

      Geekcamp organisers will provide supporting evidence to Discord administrators and/or local law enforcement authorities for their follow-up action.
