Hello SCaLE planners,
I would like to suggest attendees have a way to share their social contact
comfort level.
Levels of comfort can include:
I welcome:
- hugs
- handshakes
- waves
- my space
Ideas of how attendees can indicate their comfort level include:
- colored lanyards
- badge stickers
The desired outcomes include lowering social anxiety and increasing
comfortability. Many members of the Linux and open-source community
struggle to navigate social situations. Covid-19 has exacerbated this
issue, as social norms are being redefined.
Thanks for consideration of this idea,
Carlos Meza
