→Certain Forms of Recognition Don't Work for Everyone
*Think about the kinds of swag that you send to people. Realize that a tshirt in some places is considered identity, while other contributors are tired of getting the same stuff. Send swag appropriately, and don't overdo it or underdo it. (see Contribution Toolbox for more on swag)
*Be transparent and communicate out the way people can take on new roles and new privileges in the community. Be consistent in your "asks."
*Offering Mentoring can be a good way to include and recognize community members- showing people that you consider them someone you want to spend time with
See references and resources guide at the bottom for etherpads and notes about the ways we recognize in different cultural contexts.
