Code of Conduct for Devthons

Devthon Code of Conduct

Shorter Version

"Devthon", is a co-creation platform that brings together minds from multiple disciplines to solve challenges and prototype new experiences. Devthons blend the principles of design thinking, co-creation and rapid prototyping into the process of making. Facilitators, mentors and domain experts also participate in aiding and accelerating the process and help participants improve outcomes.

We value participation of each member and want all attendees to have an enjoyable and fulfilling experience. All attendees are expected to show respect and courtesy to each other throughout the Devthon.

All attendees - participants, organizers, facilitators and volunteers - at the Devthon are required to follow the Code of Conduct. Organizers and volunteers will enforce this code throughout the event.

Attendees are also requested to ensure that there is no damage to the local venue. You are requested to notify the organizers or volunteers in case of any damage.

Kindly do not misuse any contact information provided in this Code of Conduct.
