== How to Have a Great Summit == '''Participate''' The work of changing the world — the big, juicy Mozilla Summit is an assembly ofwork — can happen only through active participation. Commit to pushing hard to go beyond what’s easy: embrace a new idea, ask a dumb question, lead a session, wellclose your laptop. If a session does not move you, Mozilliansfind another that does (it’s okay to shift). You alone get to decide what interests you, stretches you and ultimately helps you grow. '''Make room''' Summit participants speak more than 114 languages. We don't all coming together for three-days understand English fluently. Some of us are hard of inspiration, connectionhearing and visually impaired. When speaking, do it slowly and purposeclearly. Check in with others as you go to make sure they understand. Participants will include paid staff from Mozilla CorpSome of us have physical limitations that make getting around difficult. Offer open structures with the idea of universal access, rather than waiting for special requests. Provide clear information on access.

Assume positive intent.

Leveraging If someone’s words make you feel unsafe or uncomfortable — a comment, a joke, a slide — and can’t address it with them directly, consider involving an intermediary (like the content planning work that will emerge from a [Conductors, for example: https://wiki.mozilla.org/SummitPlanningAssembly Conductors). If you’ve made someone feel unsafe or uncomfortable, be open to adjusting your presentation or public speech and apologize directly when needed. '''Have fun''' The Summit Planning Assembly] is our opportunity to pause and celebrate who we are and all that we have accomplished. It’s a chance to meet other amazing humans, to connect, to dance, to build things, to break them too. It’s your moment to dig in Juneand have fun. Let’s do it.
