As a member of the Empowering YOU Village we ask that you uphold a set of shared values and understanding of what it takes to truly support the next generation of leaders:

1. To mentor and empower those that reach out to you including upskilling and knowledge sharing
2. To refer those from the network to job and funding opportunities
3. To send the ladder back down rather than pulling it up

Our purpose is to provide access, opportunity and network for our members. We therefore want this space to be somewhere you can:

• share interesting news pieces and discuss current affairs, particularly in tech and entrepreneurship
• share funding and training opportunities
• ask for advice and connect to support inside and outside of the group

That being said...

• Always keep to the purpose of the group. Don’t share irrelevant messages about other topics.
• Do not have one-on-one conversations in the group. Switch to private messages.
• Respect differences of all kinds in the group (but not racism, sexism or xenophobia)
