:::success
This is the advice for submission - all a great fit!: 

Wranglers generally look for creative sessions that **emphasize participation, accessibility, and inclusion**. They also review proposals for clear connections between sessions and their Spaces. Sessions should also clearly **relate to internet health and trustworthy AI.**

It’s also important to consider co-facilitating, especially during virtual sessions. A team of Facilitators can do a much better job of interacting with Participants and managing the technology at the same time than any single person can.

Here’s what I’ve put:
9:51
We hope to share and learn methods and techniques of participatory research and co-design and advocate for neurodiverse inclusion and accessibility. We also hope to foster a productive discussion around inclusive online spaces and empowering research. As this session will be co-run by a diverse group of professional researchers, citizen scientists, and coders, we will model participatory practices, and demonstrate the value of working collaboratively and equitably.
We want to share how we have managed this project to be inclusive and empowering, and lessons learnt from creating an open-source project designed by, and for, autistic people. This includes sharing strategies for effective community management, and design ideas/principles for creating a safe and accessible online space, which maintains privacy and agency while being committed to open research.
We are excited to learn and grow by engaging with the ideas, knowledge, and experiences of the MozFest community.
*
Creating neurodiverse wellbeing is core to the AutSPACEs project and at the heart of our community. We are dedicated to improving the wellbeing of autistic people, and this is reflected in multiple dimensions of the project: empowering autistic people throughout the research process; creating an online space which is designed to be inclusive and accessible to individuals across the autistic constellation, and working towards research outputs which have a positive impact according to autistic people’s priorities.
We welcome MozFest’s dedicated space to neurodiversity. It is hugely exciting to have the opportunity to be part of a wider conversation about neurodiverse wellbeing, and to engage with a community hoping to change online norms to support neurodiverse people. The MozFest values of openness and collaboration, along with a shared desire to improve the wellbeing of neurodiverse people, makes this an ideal space for our session.
*
We will structure the session so that 5 members from our community (~6 minutes each) present a piece they’ve developed for the project. We plan to have 3 targeted discussion sections where participants engage. If there are low numbers of attendance, we can hold everyone in the same online space and support a discussion with the whole group. If a larger number of participants attend, we will structure “breakout groups” and have our community members supporting the discussion.
We will support accessibility for a neurodiverse group by 1) a “calm room” on Zoom where anyone can go at any time for a break from the session; 2) “type” and “talk” contribution options (with a notetaker) 3) supporting the session with a code of conduct designed to facilitate inclusive, respectful interaction. The AutSPACEs team has extensive experience facilitating neurodiverse groups, and we will tailor our support for individuals as needed.
*
We’d be delighted to continue dialogue from the session and offer support/onboarding for those interested in joining our community or using any of our resources and techniques. We commit to actively supporting individuals to take part to ensure the project is accessible. We are excited and open to opportunities for future collaboration.
We will (with participants’ permission) take notes on an open document, which we will publish on our GitHub repository, so that the learning is openly available, can be shared with the AutSPACEs community, and can be incorporated into future research. 
The co-design of the AutSPACEs platform is ongoing, with many opportunities for collaboration throughout the research cycle. AutSPACEs is open to all, and attendees will be warmly invited to join further discussions via. a range of routes, including regular, public meet-up sessions. We are also able to support others in neurodiverse inclusion.

9:52
and for the general statement:
9:52
AutSPACEs is a unique, community-led citizen science project to investigate how sensory processing differences affect the ways autistic people navigate the world. We are taking an open and participatory approach, co-designing a citizen science platform where autistic people, and their supporters, will be able to share their experiences, both with each other and for research. We are at the forefront of inclusive, participatory research. Everything, from selecting the research question, to platform design and dissemination of findings, has involved autistic people. We are developing techniques and practices for empowering a neurodiverse community and creating inclusive online spaces. We are eager to open up a broad discussion so we can share findings, learn, collaborate, and grow our understanding of best practices for empowering neurodiverse people.
5 members of the AutSPACEs community, with different backgrounds and roles, will run a discussion session centring around diverse inclusion and empowerment. We will begin by giving an overview of AutSPACEs, and then we will each present on an area of the project. We will then facilitate a series of discussions based on three prompts:
What is genuine empowerment?
What opportunities does new technology offer for inclusive co-creation?
How do we create a welcoming, inclusive online space for neurodiverse people?
These discussions will be run via. a combination of breakout rooms and whole group discussions. Notes will be taken on a shared document which will be uploaded (with participants’ permission) to our GitHub repository and shared with the AutSPACEs community.

# Final Draft 
> For Georgia's Review

## Description (250 words)
AutSPACEs is a community-led citizen science project to investigate how sensory processing differences affect the ways autistic people navigate the world. The platform is designed for autistic individuals and their supporters to share their experiences of the world so that the autistic community, allies, and researchers can understand the relationship between sensory processing and autism. This session will discuss the ways in which open source technologies can be used to support the development of a citizen science project in a way that prioritizes the wellbeing and empowerment of its neurodiverse community.

5 members of the AutSPACEs community will run a discussion session centring around diverse inclusion and empowerment. We will begin by giving an overview of AutSPACEs, and then we will each present on an area of the project we have been working on. We will then facilitate a series of discussions based on the following prompts:
  
* What is *genuine* empowerment?
* How can existing Open Source tools be used to support inclusive co-created projects?
* What considerations need to be made to ensure that Open Source projects maintain the safety, privacy, and wellbeing of neurodiverse communities? 
* How do we create a welcoming, inclusive online space for neurodiverse people?
* How can we develop infrastructure that open source platforms and their content are used in ways that the communities on the platforms would wish it to be used? 
* What needs to be done to support informed consent and data ownership within neurodiverse communities interacting in online spaces? 


## What is the goal and/or outcome of your session? (150 words)

We hope to share and learn methods and techniques of participatory research and co-design; advocate for neurodiverse inclusion and accessibility, and foster productive discussion around inclusive online spaces and empowering research. As this session will be co-run by a diverse group of professional researchers, citizen scientists, and coders, we also hope to model participatory practices, and to demonstrate the value of working collaboratively and equitably. 

The discussion sections do not require contributors to have prior knowledge and instead focus on active participation. While we have much expertise to draw upon and share, we also have much to learn, especially from others with lived experience, and we believe there is a huge amount to gain from open and ongoing discussion. We are excited to learn and grow by engaging with the ideas, knowledge, and experiences of the MozFest community.

## Why did you choose that space? How does your session align with the space description? (150 words)

AutSPACEs was developed to support the wellbeing of autistic individals and the project itself is entirely co-created by the community. We'd like to connect with the MozFest community and engage in a dialogue about how technologies can support the wellbeing of neurodiverse people. The values of MozFest and this specific space fits well with our project's goals. We have a lot to learn and a lot to share through discussions in this space, which is profoundly value-aligned with AutSPACEs. 
 

We want to share how we have managed this project to be inclusive and empowering, and lessons learnt from creating an open source project designed by, and for, autistic people. This includes sharing strategies for effective community management, and design ideas/principles for creating a safe and accessible online space, which maintains privacy and agency while being committed to principles of open research. 


## How will you deal with varying numbers of participants in your session? What if 30 participants attend? What if there are 3? (150 words)

We plan to structure the session so that 5 members from our community (~6 minutes each) present one of the pieces they've developed for the project. We plan to have 3 targetted discussion sections where participants engage. If there is low numbers of attendance, we can hold everyone in the same online space and support a discussion with the whole group. If a larger number of participants attend, we will structure "breakout groups" and have our community members supporting the discussion. The AutSPACEs team has extensive experience facilitating neurodiverse groups, and we will tailor our support for individuals as needed. 

## What happens after MozFest? We're hoping that many efforts and discussions will continue after MozFest. Share any ideas you already have for how to continue the work from your session. (150 words)

We believe that open discussion and collaboration is core to the development of inclusive projects. The co-design of the AutSPACEs platform is ongoing, and there will be many opportunities for collaboration throughout the research cycle. AutSPACEs is open to all, and attendees will be warmly invited to join our community and to make ongoing contributions via. a range of routes to involvement, including regular, public meet-up sessions. There are opportunities for developers to help create the code for the platform, and those with lived experience of autism to influence the process of the research and the platfrom design. We would be delighted to continue a dialogue from the session, offer support/onboarding for those interested in joining our community, and are highly open to new opportunities for future collaboration.

# Creating Neurodiverse Wellbeing 
Do you--or others you know--think, relate and engage in ways that don’t fit ‘typical’ social norms? Such experiences are common for those on the neurodivergent spectrum and many others.

Many of us, especially neurodivergent people, experience multiple challenges online and offline, struggling to address our mental, physical, and emotional concerns.

We’ll explore not only how neurodivergent, gender diverse, and other individuals access care in the digital age, but how communities navigate wellbeing. Join us to explore how tech is built and brainstorm new ideas to increase access for neurodivergent individuals. By creating art and cultural works, community, hackathons, and storytelling, we can inform technology and enhance the user experience for neurodivergent individuals and our global communities.

By gathering to share in a welcoming and supportive Space, we can break down barriers and grow opportunities for healing change. Come help us build networks of trust and equity in the digital age!

This is a discussion 
#### Description (250 words)


AutSPACEs is a unique, community-led citizen science project to investigate how sensory processing differences affect the ways autistic people navigate the world. We are taking a thouroughly open and participatory approach, co-designing a citizen science platform where autistic people, and their supporters, will be able to share their experiences, both with each other and for research. We are at the forefront of inclusive, participatory research, and everything, from selecting the research question, to platform design and dissemination of findings, has been done with the involvement and guidance of autistic people. We have been developing techniques and practices for empowering a neurodiverse community and creating inclusive online spaces, and we are eager to open up a broad discussion so that we can share our findings, learn, collaborate, and grow our understanding of best practices for empowering neurodiverse people. 
 
5 members of the AutSPACEs community, with different backgrounds and roles, will run a discussion session centring around diverse inclusion and empowerment. We will begin by giving an overview of AutSPACEs, and then we will each present on an area of the project we have been working on. We will then facilitate a series of discussions based on the following prompts:
  
* What is *genuine* empowerment?
* How can existing Open Source tools be used to support inclusive co-created projects?
* What considerations need to be made to ensure that Open Source projects maintain the safety, privacy, and wellbeing of neurodiverse communities? 
* How do we create a welcoming, inclusive online space for neurodiverse people?
* How can we develop infrastructure that open source platforms and their content are used in ways that the communities on the platforms would wish it to be used. 
* What needs to be done to support informed consent and data ownership within neurodiverse communities interacting in online spaces.


These discussions will be run via. a combination of breakout rooms and whole group discussions. Notes will be taken on a shared doc which will be uploaded (with participants' permission) to our GitHub repository and shared with the AutSPACEs community. 

> A further aim is to provide a demonstration of an ethically created and managed online space to support the diverse inclusion of a community, and the ethical stewardship of their data.

* [name=Georgia] I am wondering if the prompts are too broad and general? Also I am not sure how well integrated the example of AutSPACEs is with the discussion -  should make this clearer?
* [name=Sophia] added a few tweaks so that they felt more "AutSPACES aligned" 

#### Notes

#### What is the goal and/or outcome of your session? (150 words)

[About the MozFest community and what to gain from them specifically]
> Learn from the participants (especially neurodiverse participants) of MozFest and to engage with a new community in order to explore and improve how Open Source projects can be more supportive of co-creation 


We hope to share and learn methods and techniques of participatory research and co-design; advocate for neurodiverse inclusion and accessibility, and foster productive discussion around inclusive online spaces and empowering research. As this session will be co-run by a diverse group of professional researchers, citizen scientists, and coders, we also hope to model participatory practices, and to demonstrate the value of working collaboratively and equitably. 

The questions we intend to explore are ones which do not require contributors to have extensive prior knowledge, but they are complex, important, and can have profound, far-reaching impact, so we hope they will be engaging to a wide range of people. While we have much expertise to draw upon and share, we also have much to learn, especially from others with lived experience, and we believe there is a huge amount to gain from open and ongoing discussion. We are excited to learn and grow by engaging with the ideas, knowledge, and experiences of the MozFest community.

**How tech is built - co-design: to increase access for neurodiverse individuals.**


AutSPACEs was developed to support the wellbeing of autistuc individals and the project itself is entirely co-created by the community. It is hugely exciting to have an opportunity to connect with the wider community at MozFest and to engage in a dialogue about how technologies can support the safety and wellbeing of neurodiverse people. The values of MozFest of openess, collaboration and mutual learning and supportiveness, along with a shared desire to improve the wellbeing of neurodiverse people, makes this an ideal space for us to hold a session. We have a lot to learn and a lot to share through discussions in this space, which is profoundly value-aligned with AutSPACEs. 

We want to share how we have managed this project to be inclusive and empowering, and lessons learnt from creating an open source project designed by, and for, autistic people. This includes sharing strategies for effective community management, and design ideas/principles for creating a safe and accessible online space, which maintains privacy and agency while being committed to principles of open research.

[something about MozFest as a whole]

#### How will you deal with varying numbers of participants in your session? What if 30 participants attend? What if there are 3? (150 words)

We plan to structure the session so that 5 members from our community (~6 minutes each) present one of the pieces they've developed for the project. We plan to have 3 targetted discussion sections where participants engage. If there is low numbers of attendance, we can hold everyone in the same online space and support a discussion with the whole group. If a larger number of participants attend, we will structure "breakout groups" and have our community members supporting the discussion. 

We will support accesibility for a neurodiverse group by 1) having a "calm room" on Zoom where anyone can go at any time for a break from the session; 2)if we have a large number of attendeees, having "type" only and "talk" only breakout rooms (with a notetaker) so people can contribute according to their preferences/needs; if we have a smaller number, having a notetaker for the whole group session and also an open document so people can type if they prefer 3)[using otter.ai to provide a live transcript of speakers?] 4)supporting the session with a code of conduct designed to facilitate inclusive, respectful interaction. The AutSPACEs team has extensive experience facilitating neurodiverse groups, and we will tailor our support for individuals as needed. 

#### What happens after MozFest? We're hoping that many efforts and discussions will continue after MozFest. Share any ideas you already have for how to continue the work from your session. (150 words)

The co-design of the AutSPACEs platform is ongoing, and there will be many opportunities for collaboration throughout the research cycle. AutSPACEs is open to all, and attendees will be warmly invited to join our community and to make ongoing contributions via. a range of routes to involvement, including regular, public meet-up sessions. There are opportunities for developers to help create the code for the platform, and those with lived experience of autism to influence the process of the research and the platfrom design. We commit to actively supporting individuals to take part to ensure the project is accessbile. We also make our projcet and community management resources openly availiable to support others interested in running a similar project. 

We believe that open discussion and collaboration is core to the development of inclusive research. We will, with the permission of participants, take notes from the session on an open document, which we will publish on our GitHub repository, so that learning from the session is openly available, can be shared with the AutSPACEs community, and can be incorporated into future research. We will also be delighted to continue dialogue from the session, offer support/onboarding for those interested in joining our community, and are highly open to new opportunities for future collaboration.

# Rethinking Power And Ethics 
As AI transforms our lives at breakneck speed, it becomes increasingly difficult to assess its benefits and harms, its impact on human rights and democracy, and how we work, learn and even live together.

How do we protect communities from harms that are made invisible by historical marginalization, and ongoing exclusion from AI design and governance? How do we move beyond corporate-sponsored invocations of ‘AI ethics’ that fail to be a check on power? How can ethical frameworks be made actionable, reshape inequities and be deployed for the meaningful governance of AI?

This Space invites activists, artists, civil society, researchers, technologists, designers and storytellers to rethink the intersection of ethics and power in tech. Bring your voice as we explore actionable insights to enact the kind of society we want for tomorrow.
