โ€œThe teacher is, necessarily, a political activist. His task is not exhausted in teaching math or geography. His task demands commitment and an attitude against social injustices. To fight against the world that the powerful organize at their convenience and where the least powerful barely survive [...] The teacher must walk with a legitimate rage, with a rightful anger, with a necessary indignation, seeking social transformations" - Paulo Freire

R-Ladies chapters are based on cities or regions.

We do NOT have chapters/groups in institutions, organizations, or companies.

If you see a group called [company] R-Ladies, it is NOT an official chapter nor part of our organization.

As stated in our mission, R-Ladies seeks to remain independent and non-commercial.

On the first cohort meeting for the @ropensci Champions Program.

We will review everything we have done so far, discuss champions' projects, progress, and challenges, and for working brainstorm ideas together.

We also have team-building activities. ๐Ÿคฉ

I have said it a thousand times and will say it again: R-Ladies is one of the best communities of which I am a part. ๐Ÿ’œ

@yabellini@fosstodon.org avatar

@leahawasser R-Ladies was the first international community to which I felt I belonged.

No one asked me for degrees, languages, or money to participate. They asked me to share what I knew, and in return, they shared everything they knew with me.

Without R-Ladies, I would not have met the amazing people who boosted my career, and I wouldn't have the impact I have on supporting others.

The people who made the community are generous, kind, intelligent, talented. I can be around them learning.

@melissawm @grimalkina yes, please! I would also love to see the other studies that Dr. Cat and team are doing applied to Open Source. ๐Ÿ˜

@yabellini@fosstodon.org avatar

@melissawm @grimalkina @gvwilson Agree!

When I became the community manager of rOpenSci the first thing I did was to learn the ways to contribute to our community and therefore who was part of it.
I wrote personas for that. Then I started looking for ways to see where I could get data on those contributions and especially to see how people interacted with each other, after all communities are made up of people and their connections.

This way, I can also serve the community better.

@melissawm @grimalkina @gvwilson What I found, in addition to the roles of author, maintainer and contributor to the software, we have the roles of reviewer, editor and editor-in-chief of the software peer-review. Reviewer and Editor of the translations. Trainer, mentor, and champion for our champions program. Blog post author and editor, speaker on our comm call, or about us at an event, user on our forum or Slack, host of our co-working sessions.

@melissawm @grimalkina @gvwilson

When I could, I recorded the interaction and I mapped the network.

I could see who works with whom and on what. I could split by countries, by language.

That helps me to make decisions on programs and content for my community.

I summarize some of this work in this talk: https://csvconfv7.netlify.app/#/

I should write more about this. But I agree that it is always incomplete, and we need to be very careful on how and what we try to measure/record.
