Summary

Gatsby has outlined a commitment to diversity and inclusion within its community, emphasizing the importance of actively seeking and amplifying voices from underrepresented groups. Initiatives include sponsoring two interns through Outreachy, a program offering internships in various tech fields to individuals facing bias in the industry, and launching the Gatsby Fellowship Program in 2020 to provide mentorship and potential employment opportunities to fellows from diverse backgrounds. Additionally, Gatsby has established an External Partnerships Fund, committing $10,000 annually to support events and programs that integrate underrepresented individuals into the developer community, while providing contributors with the option to donate their Swag Store credits to this fund. A Code of Conduct has been instituted to uphold community standards, with ongoing reviews every six months to assess the effectiveness of these initiatives.
