IAWF Principles of Conduct

Embracing Diversity and Inclusion: Being a diverse and inclusive organization will enable the International Association of Wildland Fire to learn from others, grow our understanding, and find new ways to address, understand and implement solutions to complex problems. The IAWF desires to maintain a positive, empowering, inclusive and innovative culture that enables all members of the fire community to feel safe and valued when contributing to the IAWF. We want to operate in a flexible and open manner to meet our membership’s needs and to help members achieve their fullest potential.

 

Principles of Conduct – Living Our Values – Leading by Example
In the conduct of personal and professional matters, IAWF places high importance on the values of integrity, responsibility and reputation. We are committed to maintaining high standards both within the organization and in our dealings with others in our daily lives. Our leadership has developed these Principles of Conduct to define our accepted and unacceptable ethical behaviors. We have established guidelines for all members at all times and non-members who may be participating at any IAWF conducted activities. It helps ensure that IAWF promotes, achieves, and maintains high standards of practice and it provides a benchmark for members and non-members participating in IAWF activities to use for self-evaluation. All conference attendees are required to read and agree to adhering to the Principles of Conduct.
If You Witness or are Subjected to Unacceptable Behavior
If you are subjected to unacceptable behavior, notice that someone else is being subjected to unacceptable behavior, hear of any such incidents, or have any other concerns, please notify an IAWF representative immediately and report the incident. There will be several means to report any occurrences of inappropriate behavior.

These include:

Face to face:
Any IAWF officer, Board Member, Diversity and Inclusivity Committee member, or any IAWF individual wearing a Planning Committee nametag, a session moderator, or anyone staffing the registration or IAWF tables are designated IAWF representatives and you can talk to them.

Someone will nearly always be at the at the Conference registration desk and you can report to them and they will contact an IAWF designated representative.

Anonymous reporting:
Use the Spot application.

Connection links and scan codes are provided in mobile app and on posters around the facility.

COVID-19

À l'heure actuelle, nous avons l'intention d'organiser une conférence en personne, mais nous avons l'intention de fournir certaines possibilités permettant aux participants de participer virtuellement s'ils le souhaitent. Pour la sécurité de nos clients, nous intégrerons toutes les précautions de sécurité nécessaires recommandées par les professionnels de la santé publique et les entités gouvernementales. Dans le cas où les circonstances entourant COVID restreignent / limitent une conférence en personne, nous pouvons explorer une option entièrement virtuelle. Nous continuerons de surveiller la situation et de vous tenir au courant.
