Core Principles and Community Guidelines

The DPF Core Principles and Community Guidelines (CPCG) govern conduct at all DPF sponsored activities, including all aspects of the Snowmass Process (e.g., remote and in-person meetings, Slack workspaces, and email communications). The current version can be found here. The CPCG is a living document that will be constantly improved upon as circumstances dictate. Therefore, input from the community is welcome any time, either via comments in the doc, email to the DPF Ethics Advisory Committee (see below) or through this form. Comments may be signed or anonymous. We ask that the comments to the CPCG follow the spirit of the CPCG and that the commentators keep in mind that our goal here is to improve on the CPCG .

We look forward to your input in crafting our community's principles and guidelines!

The CPCG was drafted by the DPF Ethics Task Force which was formed in April 2020 (see the membership below). Their work will be carried out by the newly formed DPF Ethics Advisory Committee (see the membership below).
