RainbowR - a Community That Supports, Connects and Promotes LGBTQ+ People Who Code in R - Ella Kaye, University of Warwick & Hanne Oberman, Utrecht University

Sign up or log in to save this to your schedule, view media, leave feedback and see who's attending!

rainbowR is a friendly community for LGBTQ+ folks who code in R. We run monthly online meet-ups where participants chat and share their R work in a supportive environment. We also organise the buddy scheme, which randomly pairs members of the community, to encourage people to meet and connect. We have exciting plans for the future! You'll learn about what rainbowR does and how you can get involved, whether as a member of the LGBTQ+ community or as an ally, and hopefully forge new connections at the conference and beyond. We believe the whole R community benefits when that community is diverse and inclusive.
