Two weeks ago, GCUC UK<\/a> supported a community event<\/a> run by Ouishare <\/a>and the European Coworking Assembly<\/a> at Huckletree West<\/a> in London. The event was designed to instigate conversations about inclusion, diversity and accessibility in collaborative workspaces.<\/p>\n It was one in a series designed to activate conversations around the core values of coworking<\/a>\u2014values that were developed by people in the early days of the coworking movement. As the coworking industry continues to explode, it\u2019s important that these core values of community, openness, collaboration, accessibility and sustainability not be forgotten.<\/p>\n While the event was grounded in the core values of coworking, the ongoing conversation is alert to issues that are gathering the voice they deserve in business and society. \u00a0For instance, Access Chat<\/a> is one of the biggest chats on Twitter. The goal for each chat is to help people get a deeper understanding of how inclusion and diversity actually play out for each other in a workplace.<\/p>\n You can also contribute to the conversation around inclusivity and diversity in coworking in the Facebook group Creating Diverse and Inclusive Coworking Communities<\/a>. The group was created to give coworking space operators and champions a platform to discuss how to ensure the coworking industry evolves as an inclusive place to work in, both as an operator and a member.<\/p>\nCoworking Values<\/h2>\n
