🌍 We’re celebrating progress toward a more inclusive Glosario! With support from the Mellon Foundation, our community has enhanced accessibility, improved contributor recognition, and increased multilingual participation.

🔊 Our Associate Director of Community @angeliquetrusler.carpentries.org is again engaging in-person with open science communities in Africa. 💙 TODAY, she's at #UbuntuNetConnect2025 in Zimbabwe, where she will also be talking about Advancing Inclusive Open Science at 11:30 AM ⏰ in the Main Hall. 🌟

@carpentries.carpentries.org also rejected a similar offer that would require them to give up any DEI work. Let's put our money where our morals are and support them: carpentries.org/support/

So you joined PSF (Python Software Foundation) as a supporting member because they gave up money for the sake of inclusion. Great! Donated? That's great too! I'd also encourage you to look at The Carpentries and give them some money. They did the same thing. And they do good work! carpentries.org

"Research Software Camp: Careers and Skills in Research Software" organised by @softwaresaved.bsky.social includes "Контроль версій за допомогою Git" (Version control with Git) lesson by @carpentries.carpentries.org taught in Ukrainian on 17 November 2025 www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/git-ticket...

On the Day of Ukrainian Writing and Language, let me introduce the project of translating UNIX shell, Git, Python and R lessons by The Carpentries (@carpentries.carpentries.org) into Ukrainian language, and building a community to teach them to Ukrainian researchers: ukrainian-carpentries.github.io

I remember that @carpentries.carpentries.org withdrew a $1.5M proposal that had been recommended for funding in June, for the same reason. carpentries.org/blog/2025/06... They link out in their post to Grant General Conditions language but I do not know if that is current.

I'd also like to shout out @carpentries.carpentries.org for leading the way on this, having made a similar decision earlier this year.

Between @python.org and @carpentries.carpentries.org, the open-source ecosystem is rejecting the administration's inquisition against DEI. If you can support them with a donation please do. I just did! Does anyone know about others who have declined NIH or NSF grant funding over over these terms?

It's striking that relatively small orgs like @carpentries.carpentries.org and @python.org are standing up for what's right, while so many much larger orgs with deeper pockets are quick to acquiesce and throw their communities under the bus. They are pointing the way for the future of science.

TLDR; The PSF has made the decision to put our community and our shared diversity, equity, and inclusion values ahead of seeking $1.5M in new revenue. Please read and share. pyfound.blogspot.com/2025/10/NSF-... 🧵
