Code of Conduct

The March on Washington Film Festival is dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience for all participants, regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, age or religion. MOWFF does not tolerate harassment of Festival participants in any form. Sexual language and imagery are not appropriate for any Festival venue, including panel discussions. Festival participants violating these rules shall be expelled from the Festival at the discretion of the Festival organizers.

Harassment includes, but is not limited to:

Verbal comments related to gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, age, or religion
Sexual images in public spaces
Deliberate intimidation, stalking, or following
Harassing photography or recording
Sustained disruption of talks or other events
Inappropriate physical contact
Unwelcome sexual attention

Enforcement

Festival participants asked to stop any harassing behavior are expected to comply immediately. If a participant engages in harassing behavior, Festival organizers retain the right to take actions to keep the event a welcoming environment for all participants. This includes warning the offender, and expulsion from the Festival.

Festival organizers may take action to redress anything designed to, or with the clear impact of, disrupting the event or making the environment hostile for any participants. MOWFF expects participants to follow these rules at all Festival venues and Festival-related social activities.

Reporting

If someone makes you or anyone else feel unsafe or unwelcome, please report it as soon as possible to Festival staff. Festival staff will be happy to help participants contact appropriate security or local law enforcement, or otherwise assist those experiencing harassment to feel safe for the duration of their Festival participation. Harassment and other code of conduct violations reduce the value of our Festival for everyone.
