=== Overview ===

== Participant Guidelines ==

The [[Participants:Guidelines|Participant Guidelines]] are a suggested set of principles that participants should agree to follow while attending Aspiration events. Also see [[Participants:Guidelines En Espanol|Participant Guidelines in Spanish]] (with thanks to Florencio Ceballos for translation).

The Participant Guidelines have played a key role in setting expectations and creating a safe space for sharing and exploration. It is recommended that the guidelines be posted on the event web site and emailed to registered participants in order to allow consideration and comments on the guidelines before the event.

The relevance of these guidelines is likely to vary by audience and locale, but the set provided here has been successfully utilized at events in the US, Europe, and Africa, and evolved accordingly. We strongly encourage feedback, enhancements and additions to these guidelines.

== Participant Pre-Event Engagement Questions ==

We use some variant of [[Participants:Pre-Event Questions|Participant Pre-Event Questions]] as we engage participants and work to build event agendas.

These are best posed via phone or other audio channel, as participants share more in this context. Failing that, email is the next best method for soliciting input.

+Over the past 14 years, in collaboration with a range of partners from across the world, we have developed and evolved our [[Participants:InclusiveSafeSpaces | Inclusive and Safe Spaces]].
 As a US-based NGO working globally, we strive to be mindful and avoid acting in ways that unproductively project our values and norms into other cultural contexts, communities or regions.
 We approach our efforts to establish inclusive, safe and open meetings as an ongoing learning effort. We update our guidelines and associated processes whenever we identify issues or areas for improvement.
