Purpose
The purpose of this Working Group (WG) is to create a cross-industry effort to encourage diversity and inclusion across the open source software ecosystem for vfx and animation. The WG will bring together software engineers/developers, marketing/communications professionals, HR, and anyone else passionate about Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) within vfx and animation.
Goals
Goals of the WG are:
- Ensure the ASWF has diverse leadership and membership across the Foundation and projects.
- Provide guidance and resources for ASWF members to educate their colleagues on open source and D&I topics, especially junior engineers and internal D&I organizations.
- Encourage high school and college students to pursue a career in or participate in open source projects by educating them on uses in the motion picture and media industries.
Deliverables
provide a list of planned deliverables, or links to the deliverables. A best practice is to have a directory named deliverables in the repo for hosting and managing deliverables.

Meeting notes, recordings, and any presentations made during WG meetings are available here.
