As we engage throughout the virtual conference in sharing with and learning from each other, let’s embrace some norms for our conversations—many of which are good practices to adopt as we continue to build girls’ schools that are communities of belonging:
Keep girls at the center
Lift up girls and young women without diminishing or demeaning others
Be fully present and authentic
Speak from your own experience
Participate with an open and curious mind
Listen with courage and empathy
Embrace different perspectives and experiences
Focus on the ideas, not the individual
Celebrate collaboration
When in doubt, ask questions
Take risks
Come with a growth mindset
Accept non-closure as there is always more to learn
