(Proposal) - Yellow September

[Allan Carvalho]

Hello KDE Community.

I am a member of Ubuntu Unity and have been talking for some time with some members of the Ubuntu community about the proposal to bring the Yellow September campaign (done here in Brazil) to Ubuntu, official / remix flavors and other distros that want to participate in the proposal. The main goals are:

- Carry out a campaign from September 1 to 30 in a decentralized way, so that everyone can participate.

- To develop inclusive activities that encourage mutual cooperation and dialogue within and outside the community.

- Promote discussion of important issues, such as mental health and related issues.

- Establish common goals and mechanisms to resolve important issues, in order to increase the receptivity and welcome of each new member, and build healthy environments for everyone.

I have made a mind map in which I explain more fully the proposal with the suggested ideas. I made the map for the Ubuntu family, but it can be applied to other distros. 

(I originally made the mind map in Portuguese and have made versions in English, Spanish, French, Italian, German, and Dutch.) 

I decided to call this initiative Pipa (the name we give to the kite here in Brazil) to signify freedom to express oneself without fear, to discover new horizons, and to encourage cooperation and mutual dialog.

I have opened a Twitter account to be able to spread the word soon about the actions that will be developed and expand the reach of the initiative:

I have also opened a server on Discord so that I can play music and talk to the community about these important topics I mentioned above:

For KDE and Kubuntu, I have special logos ready if you both show interest in joining the campaign.

I believe that this initiative is a good opportunity for the community to reconnect with itself and can help in building healthy, welcoming and accepting environments for everyone, as well as encouraging more cooperation and dialogue.  

Thank you for reading, and I will be waiting for your response.

Allan.
