They encourage other R meetings to adopt codes of conduct as well, stating that: </p> <blockquote> <p> A code of conduct serves two important purposes. Firstly, it sends a clear message to those outside the community that an R conference is a professional and comfortable working environment for all participants. Secondly, it provides a mechanism for reporting and monitoring any incidents of harassment that may occur. </p> </blockquote>
