Eugene VeganFest Eco-Policy- The Eugene VeganFest is an Earth-Friendly Event. We always keep consideration for the planet forefront in our minds and strive to reduce our impact in organizing and executing our event. We require all vendors to use only compostable materials. We strive to be a zero waste event and you can help by bringing your own travel mug, bowls, flatware, cloth napkin, etc. Come prepared and reduce the waste generated at the event. Thank you for being part of the solution and for caring about the Earth and her animals.
Eugene VeganFest Safe Space Policy- The Eugene VeganFest wants all our attendees to have a wonderful time free of any harassment, intimidation, or uncomfortable interactions. As such, we strive to promote principles of fairness and equity in relation to race, age, color, disability, faith, religion, ancestry, national origin, citizenship, sex, sexual orientation, social class, economic class, ethnicity, gender identity, gender expression, and all other identities.
We must all work together to make sure that the Eugene VeganFest is safe and comfortable space for all individuals so we have developed the following guidelines to address inappropriate behavior at the Eugene VeganFest:
- Inappropriate behavior that is prohibited may include, but is not limited to: behavior that is racist, sizeist, sexist, transphobic, queerphobic, ableist, xenophobic, ageist, and homophobic. Inappropriate behavior includes sarcasm as well as unwillingness to listen to and learn from others’ experiences.
- If you feel that you have been subjected to inappropriate behavior or discrimination, you should report the incident to Eugene VeganFest Manger Hope Bohanec. (hope@compassionate-living.org / 707-540-1760). Someone else may also report on your behalf. There will be no retaliation against any person who reports the behavior.
- If someone questions your behavior, the event manager will speak with you. You may be given a verbal warning and you may be asked to leave the event. If inappropriate behavior continues and/or is reported again, you may be prohibited from attending future Eugene VeganFests.
This policy is a work in progress and we invite feedback on how to create safer spaces for all individuals.
Come join us as we share, learn, grow, eat and enjoy
