Code of Conduct
Careful language in EHBEA presentations: when preparing your presentation/poster, please remember the importance of using non-judgemental language when discussing people and their behaviours. For instance, when discussing mating behaviour in humans, ‘promiscuous’ has a negative meaning in English – consider instead ‘having more sexual partners’. Similarly, rather than describing individuals as ‘lower quality’ consider referring more specifically to the trait you are measuring, such as experiencing higher health stress or lower growth rate.
Please also remember EHBEA’s commitments to ensuring the conference provides a welcoming environment for all https://www.cambridge.org/core/membership/ehbea/principals-and-ethics, and to reducing the misuse of evolutionary research to reinforce racist, sexist and other forms of discrimination, when considering how to present your data.
