As a member of UnscriptedNyon I agree to:
Respect Boundaries: Every participant has unique boundaries, both physical and emotional. Always seek and respect consent, never pushing someone beyond their comfort zone. If someone says 'no' or expresses discomfort, respect it without question.
Active Listening: Pay close attention when others speak or act. Avoid interrupting, and always aim to understand and build upon others' contributions. Every voice is valuable and deserves to be heard.
Embrace All Ideas: Always be open to build up on other people's ideas and to make contributions that move the scene forward rather than shutting down the flow.
Commit to Equity and Inclusion: Ensure every member, regardless of their background, feels welcomed and valued. Discrimination or bias of any form will not be tolerated. Be proactive in ensuring diverse voices are amplified and included.
Foster a Safe Environment: Emotional and physical safety is paramount. If someone shares personal experiences or emotions, treat them with sensitivity and confidentiality. Any form of harassment or belittling behavior is strictly prohibited.
Do not judge. Due to the unscripted nature of improvisation, participants can sometimes say things that are not their own belief, but that emerge spontaneously. Do not judge the person for what they said or the character they portrayed, but if you feel uncomfortable please do talk about it.
As members of this UnscriptedNyon, it's essential to adhere to these agreements, making it a true space for creativity, equity, and openness.
