Hi! This is our #introduction 💜 We are the R-Ladies Global organization ✨
The #RStats community suffers from an under-representation of minority genders in every role and area of participation.
As a diversity initiative, the mission of #RLadies is to achieve proportionate representation. R-Ladies’ primary focus is to support minority gender R enthusiasts to achieve their programming potential by building a collaborative global network to facilitate individual and collective progress worldwide.
We are the only fully online chapter of R-Ladies, the global organization promoting gender diversity in the R community. Our chapter particularly welcomes people working remotely or living in places remote from other chapters.
Our main community is on Slack, where we sometimes hold organized sessions (coffee chats, reading groups) and we also hold occasional online talks/workshops.
I'm Daniela and I live in Uruguay. I'm a self employed Data Scientist and a mother 💞
I used to be a blogger (https://d4tagirl.com) and an avid Twitter enthusiast. Now I'm trying to figure out how to use Mastodon and come back to blogging 🤩
I love #rstats and its community, especially #RLadies 💜 I am an R-Ladies Global Team member (Social Media) and I co-funded two R-Ladies chapters in this region and an R-User Group as well.
It’s an important day for us (although the R-Ladies mission is not limited to women).
💜Who are we? R-Ladies is a worldwide organization whose mission is to promote gender diversity in the R community.
💜Why do we exist? The R community suffers from an under-representation of women minority genders in every role and area of participation.
Later, we’ll highlight ways that you can get involved with R-Ladies and be a better ally! #IWD2024#RLadies

📣 I launched my first newsletter! It's free and I'll be using it to send a little email note any time I publish a blog post, publication, talk, or project on my #quarto site.
