='''Introduction'''=

This guide provides a step-by-step guidance on the essential elements, most common practices and responsibilities of the National Standards Organizations (NSOs) and National Standardisation Bodies (NSBs).

An NSO is an organization that develops, maintains and coordinates voluntary standardization activities in a particular country. NSOs typically represent the interests of various stakeholders, including businesses, consumers, academia and government.

An NSB is an NSO from the European Economic Area and thus from one of the following countries: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, The Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain or Sweden.

The information contained in this guide is based on the Rules of Procedure (RoP) and Technical Working Procedure (TWP) contained in the [https://portal.etsi.org/Resources/ETSI-Directives ETSI Directives], the European Commission Regulations (EU) [https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/FR/TXT/?uri=celex%3A32012R1025 N° 1025/2012], and amendment [https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/reg/2022/2480/oj N° 2022/2480] and also on the [https://etsisign.eu1.echosign.com/public/esignWidget?wid=CBFCIBAA3AAABLblqZhDi5sRNHpzZXSLmat-YMhP7Ocp_1sEYbdRmsjREUEW8uboWsI-7MWrEIGHdU8UfSXo* ETSI-NSO Agreement].

=='''Roles'''==
=The NSO/NSB Official Contact=
The Official Contact is the person designated by the NSO to be the main contact person between ETSI and the NSO.
There is only one Official Contact per NSO, ensuring that all the contact details within the organization are correctly registered in the ETSI Directory Services application. Contact details can be consulted via the [https://portal.etsi.org/LoginRedirection.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2fwebapp%2fTeldir%2f Directory Services] page.

='''ETSI Deliverables'''=
Work in ETSI is done on the basis of ETSI work items, approved by the Technical Body and adopted by the ETSI membership.
A work item results in one deliverable (sometimes more than one), which can be a European Standard or a Technical Specification, an ETSI Guide or a Technical Report.
ETSI has a suite of specifications, standards and reports that fulfil the various needs of the market:

* ETSI EN (European Standard) - adopted by ETSI National Standards Organizations (NSOs) (except those elaborated in response to a Standardisation Request (SReq)).

='''Process'''=

[[File:Figure1_SMP.jpeg|options|caption]]

The Standards Making Process (SMP) is the process applied for the Technical Organization's production of standards and deliverables and the Secretariat's involvement in and interaction with the Technical Organization, the ETSI members and the ETSI National Standards Organizations.
The general conditions for the SMP are defined by the ETSI Directives, in particular the Technical Working Procedures. The Secretariat's tasks and activities in SMP are primarily defined in the Quality Management System (QMS) documentation of ETSI Operations (OPS) Division.

==Process overview==
[process - a structured, measured set of activities designed to produce a specified output]
The objective of the ETSI Standards Making Process (SMP) is to convert market needs for standardization in the ICT area into ETSI deliverables (specifications, standards, norms, guides, reports) used in the market place.
The input to the process is an existing (as yet known or unknown) market need for standardization. The output is the broad application of the produced deliverables in the market place.
The SMP consists of five main elements, sub-processes, with their own distinct objectives, inputs and outputs. Each sub-process is defined to the level of which operational tasks are performed, and where in the ETSI organization they are performed.
The whole ETSI organization is in one way or the other involved in either operation of the SMP or in direct or indirect support of it. The main technical activities are performed in the Technical Groups of the Technical Organization. The main direct support to those activities is provided by ETSI Operations (OPS) and ETSI Standardization Service (STS) Divisions of the ETSI Secretariat.
The operation of the SMP in the Technical Organization is governed by the ETSI Directives, in particular the Technical Working Procedures, and the ETSI Drafting Rules. The processes, tasks and procedures of the ETSI Secretariat are governed by the Secretariat's Quality Management System documentation, notably that of ETSI Operations (OPS) and ETSI Standardization Service (STS) Divisions.

==Inception==
[inception - an act, process, or instance of beginning (as of an institution, organization, or concept)]
The times when initiatives to standardization were taken only when products and services were already available are since long gone. This is particularly the case for telecommunications where standardization precedes or goes hand in hand with the design and development processes.
The input to this sub-process is "what's going on in the marketplace", with "marketplace" having a broad interpretation, including development in the research and academic circles.
The output is a new standardization area, given to an existing or a new Technical Group. The formal output is the Terms of Reference (ToR) and/or a Project Requirements Definition (PRD) document, approved by the ETSI Board or, in the case of an ETSI Partnership Project with an external organization, approved by the ETSI General Assembly.

==The process itself consists, in broad terms, of:==
*identifying needs for standardization in the subject areas defined by the ETSI Statutes and Rules of Procedure.
*defining the suitable organization for such standardization within ETSI.
==There are various actors in this process==
* experts in the Technical Bodies, Special Committees and ISGs.
* ETSI Members.
* supported by OPS Technical Officers and staff from Innovation.
==Conception==
[conception - the capacity, function, or process of forming ideas or abstractions or of grasping the meaning of symbols representing such ideas or abstractions; an idea or general notion; the originating of something (as an idea or plan) in the mind].
The creation of a new standardization area or ISG is manifested by the establishment of the new Technical Group or the amendment of the Terms of Reference of the Project Requirements Definition of an existing.
The identification, definition, approval and adoption of work items are the main elements of the conception phase (even if work items may have been envisaged already during the inception process).
The input is identified standardization needs in the area. These work items may either be entirely new, leading to new deliverables, or a new version of an existing deliverable ("maintenance work item").
The output is a work item, adopted by the ETSI Membership for ETSI deliverables created on proposal for Full or Associate members.
A proposal for a work item may come from inside or outside the Technical Group. The Technical Group may approve the work item, if at least four ETSI Members volunteer to support the work (except those in response to a Standardisation Request (WISR)). The adoption is formally done by the ETSI Membership, except those in response to a Standardisation Request (WISR). The existence of new work items is made known via the ETSI Web site and Members who disagree with the item may within a 30-day period oppose its adoption into the ETSI Work Programme.
ETSI may elaborate European Standards and European standardisation deliverables in response to Standardisation Requests to support the European legislation or policies, in accordance with the amended Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012.
As per Article 20.4 of the Rules of procedure, it is the responsibility of the National Standardisation Bodies (NSB) to adopt a new WISR created by the responsible Technical Group in response to a Standardisation Request (SReq).
For full details see clauses 1.6.3 (Adoption of a Work Item) and 1.7 (Decision-making in a Technical Group of the Technical Working Procedures.
==Drafting==
[drafting - to make a preliminary or tentative version, sketch, or outline (as of a literary composition or other document)].
A work item in the ETSI Work Programme is intended to lead to one (or more) ETSI deliverable(s).
A Technical Group is free to organize its work in any way it wishes, within the rules of the Technical Working Procedures, including create Working Groups to which the tasks of drafting parts of the Technical Group's work programme are given.
The drafting usually takes place in a small team (Rapporteur group) led by a Rapporteur. The work is largely done by "correspondence", i.e. by exchange of documents via the ETSI DocBox server and LISTSERV email exploder facilities.
When the draft by the Rapporteur group is considered ready, the draft deliverable is handed over to the Working Group (when it exists) for approval. The formal approval for further processing or, in the case of ETSI Technical Specifications or ETSI Technical Reports, approval and adoption can only be done by the Technical Group, either at a meeting or by correspondence.
Some drafting activities for a Technical Group are performed by Specialist Task Forces (STF)/Testing Task Forces (TTF) located at the ETSI Secretariat.
The adaptation of specifications from external bodies (Publicly Available Specifications (PAS)) to the ETSI deliverable structure follows the same rules, but will normally be performed by the PAS provider, as defined in the Guidelines for adoption of Publicly Available Specifications.
==Adoption==
[adoption - the act or process of adopting someone or something, such as: the act or process of giving official acceptance or approval to something]
While the drafting process is, in principle, the same for all ETSI deliverables, the process elements of the adoption process depend on the type of deliverable being processed.

='''ETSI Group Specification, ETSI Group Report, ETSI Special Report, ETSI Technical Specification and ETSI Technical Report''' =
For ETSI Group Specification (GS), ETSI Group Report (GR), ETSI Special Report (SR), ETSI Technical Specification (TS) and ETSI Technical Report (TR) elaborated on proposal from Full and Associate members, the Technical Group draft approval and adoption take place at the same time (one combined decision).
The Publication process element consists of publishing in PDF format and archiving. The published deliverable will then be made available for distribution via the ETSI Web server.

Use of gender inclusive language Guide

2024-02-01T09:10:41Z

Raffy: /* Best practices/strategies for the use of gender in texts, events: */

== Executive summary ==
This guide discusses which language is appropriate for the use in ETSI deliverables and gives examples of how to best avoid common mistakes.
== Introduction ==
The ETSI community is diverse and includes all kinds of organisation, from all over the globe. It is therefore important that the way in which ETSI deliverables are phrased is representative of the whole community. This means that ETSI staff and all people working in the different ETSI groups should be conscious about the language they use to not unconsciously leave out or misrepresent parts of the community or society.
This guide focusses in its first release on gender-inclusive language but could be broadened to other aspects in the future.
“Using gender-inclusive language means speaking and writing in a way that does not discriminate against a particular sex, social gender or gender identity, and does not perpetuate gender stereotypes. Given the key role of language in shaping cultural and social attitudes, using gender-inclusive language is a powerful way to promote gender equality and eradicate gender bias.” [statement from the United Nations on gender-inclusive language].
This guide includes a number of recommendations that are a direct copy from the United Nations guidelines on gender-inclusive language, since they are internationally recognised and therefore set a global standard for how to communicate in a gender-inclusive manner.
== Scope ==
The present document focusses on giving guidance on how to communicate using gender-inclusive language in a written form. The aim of this document is to facilitate the development of gender inclusive ETSI deliverables.

== Guidelines ==
=== When to apply ===
These Guidelines include a number of strategies to help ETSI staff and ETSI community use inclusive language. They may be applied to any type of communication, whether it is oral or written, formal or informal, or addressed to an internal or external audience.
When deciding what strategies to use, ETSI staff and ETSI community should:
* Take into account the type of text/oral communication, the context, the audience and the purpose of the communication.
* Ensure that the text is readable and the text/oral communication clear, fluid and concise.
* Seek to combine different strategies throughout the text/oral communication that allow all categories of the expected audience to be included.
There are different areas that may need extra attention like the use of gender, race, age, cultural background, religion, sexuality etc. Most of these areas may not seem to occur in ETSI documents including standards but being aware of them is important to avoid biased text.
The following chapters give guidance on how to avoid biased text with regard to gender, since this is regarded as the most critical area at the time of the first draft of this guidance.

=== Gender in English ===
In English, there is a difference between “grammatical gender”, “gender as a social construct” (which refers to the roles, behaviours, activities and attributes that a given society at a certain time considers appropriate for men, women or nonbinary people) and “sex” as a biological characteristic of living beings.
English has very few gender markers: the pronouns and possessives (he, she, her, his, they and their); and some nouns and forms of address. Most English nouns do not have grammatical gender forms (teacher, president), whereas a few nouns are specifically masculine or feminine (actor/actress, waiter/waitress). Some nouns that once ended in -man now have neutral equivalents that are used to include all genders (police officer for policeman/policewoman, spokesperson for spokesman, chair/chairperson for chairman, etc.).
A challenge for gender-inclusive communication in English is the use of the masculine form by default. For example, “Every Permanent Representative must submit his credentials to Protocol.”
This is why the following chapter on best practices/strategies provides examples how these types of sentences can be written in a different way to avoid the direct mentioning of one gender only.
=== Best practices/strategies for the use of gender in texts, events ===
A number of strategies can be applied, when speaking or writing in English, to be more gender-inclusive:
===== Forms of address =====
When referring to or addressing specific individuals, use forms of address and pronouns that are consistent with their gender identity (e.g. Ms. for females, Mr. for males). If unsure, use neutral terms like the delegate, the chair, the convenor, etc., or their name (e.g. Robin or Robin Jones) or titles (if appropriate) like Professor Smith.
Alternatively, and if the situation permits, ask the persons addressed or written about what pronoun and form of address should be used for them.
There should also be consistency in the way people are referred to: if one of them is addressed by their name, last name, courtesy title, or profession, the others should be addressed similarly.

'''Examples'''

*Less inclusive “Professor Smith (surname and title for a man) and Madeline (first name for a woman) will attend.”
*More inclusive “Professor Smith and Professor Jones will attend (surname and title for both).”

'''Ms. or Mrs.?'''

*Care should be taken to use the form of address preferred by each individual. However, when that preference is not known, precedence is given to Ms. over Mrs., as the former is more inclusive and can refer to any woman, regardless of marital status. Note also, but increasingly rare, some will prefer Miss to Ms or Mrs. The use of the non-specific form of address Mx is also available but is not widely used and use should be clarified on an individual basis.

'''Use of Chair'''
*
ETSI has adopted the gender-neutral Chair as the expression for the Chair of a meeting. It can be assumed that this can be used as a form of address in oral and written work. It does not however preclude the use of other forms of address where they are generally agreed by the people involved, in particular the person who is the Chair. Such expressions include Madam Chair, Chairperson, Chairman, etc. Formal records of meetings and published documents are expected to use Chair as the term.

==== Avoid gender-biased expressions or expressions that reinforce gender stereotypes ====

====='''Discriminatory examples'''=====

*“She throws/runs/fights like a girl.”
*“In a manly way.”
*“Oh, that’s women’s work.”
*“Thank you to the ladies for making the room more beautiful.”
*“Men just don’t understand.”

'''Examples'''
*Less inclusive: “Guests are cordially invited to attend with their wives.”
*More inclusive: “Guests are cordially invited to attend with their partners.”
*Less inclusive: “Fathers babysit their children.”
*More inclusive: “Fathers care for their children.”

==== How do I know if I am using discriminatory language?====
Reverse the gender: Would reversing the designation or the term from masculine to feminine or vice versa change the meaning or emphasis of the sentence? Would it make the sentence sound odd?

'''Examples'''

*“Women should not seek out leadership positions.”
*“Men cannot do two things at the same time.”

=== Avoid gender-biased presentation that is not relevant (e.g. age) ===
==== Discriminatory example ====
“Anna (34) is an e-Governance expert, e-Estonia Briefing Centre managing director, and TED speaker. Maarten Mes is Managing Director of one2many, a world leader in Cell Broadcast.”
Ask yourself if the added information is relevant for the message of the text.

=== Be open to all forms of gender ===
The concepts of non-binary gender and gender fluidity are now widely understood. There are a range of norms that relate to the treatment of language relating to them, but they are not universally accepted.
Particular treatment is thus not indicated in this document, but it is highlighted as something where sensitivity and tolerance are necessary.

=== Informal terms ===
Informal terms such as “dude”, “mate”, “pal” and “buddy” are often used in conversation amongst friends but should not be used in a professional context. They may also have alternative meanings eg “mate” can be a noun or a verb and should therefore be avoided as far as possible.

=== Terms of endearment ===
Terms of endearment such as “love”, “darling”, “sweetheart”, “gorgeous”, “chick”, “boy”, “girl”, “baby”, “sugar”, “honey” and “sweetness” often make the gender of the speaker sound superior to the gender of the person spoken to in multigender conversations.
Such terms should generally be avoided as far as possible.

=== Make gender visible when it is relevant for communication ===
==== Using several different words ====
In cases in which highlighting gender would make the sentence more inclusive, several separate words can be used. This strategy should be used only when popular beliefs or preconceptions may obscure the presence or action of any gender.

'''Examples'''

*“Children should attend the first cooking class with their parents.”
*“All of the soldiers, men, women and non-binary, responded negatively to question 5 in the survey on gender inclusivity.”

==== Not recommended in general: Using feminine and masculine pronouns ====
“Pairing” is the use of both feminine and masculine forms (he or she; her or his). It is a strategy that may be used when the author/speaker wants to explicitly make both women and men visible.
This guide does not recommend the usage of pairing in general though, because of the following reasons:
*It may be distracting to the reader, in particular in narrative texts.
*Not everyone may consider themselves to fall into one of these two categories.
*It may also create inconsistencies or render the text less accurate - for example, in legal texts.

=== Do not make gender visible when it is not relevant for communication ===
==== Use gender-neutral words ====
*Less inclusive: “Mankind”
*More inclusive: “Humankind”; “humanity”; “human race”
*Less inclusive: “Plans to outsource some 19 services have not proceeded at the anticipated pace, as there are significant manpower shortages.”
*More inclusive: “Plans to outsource some 19 services have not proceeded at the anticipated pace, as there are significant staffing shortages.”
*Less inclusive: “Man-made”
*More inclusive “Artificial”; “human-created”

==== Using plural pronouns/adjectives ====

Plural pronouns may be used as a shortcut to ensure gender inclusiveness (words such as they, them, their). Care should be taken to ensure that there is no confusion using a plural pronoun in the singular that there is no confusing plural meaning – especially if there is a legal use of the material.
The plural form is also widely used in speech and would be quite acceptable in meetings and informal conversations at ETSI.

'''Example'''

*“Before submitting your document, send it to the focal point for their review; they will return it to you with comments.”

It is noted that there are several schemes of genderless pronoun. For example, zie for he or she, zim for him/her and zir for his/her. Whilst their use is not precluded in discussions where participants understand those pronouns, it is suggested that they are not used in written correspondence and the plural form or other neutral forms of speech are used as far as possible.
==== Use the pronoun “one”====

*Less inclusive: “A staff member in Antarctica earns less than he would in New York.”
*More inclusive: “You earn less in Antarctica than New York.” or “A staff member in Antarctica earns less than one in New York.”

==== Use the relative pronoun “who”====
*Less inclusive: “If a complainant is not satisfied with the board’s decision, he can ask for a rehearing.”
*More inclusive: “A complainant who is not satisfied with the board’s decision can ask for a rehearing.”

====Use a plural antecedent====
When referring to generic subjects, plural antecedents may be used in order to avoid gendered pronouns.

*Less inclusive: “A substitute judge must certify that he has familiarized himself with the record of the proceedings.”
*More inclusive: “Substitute judges must certify that they have familiarized themselves with the record of the proceedings.”
==== Omit the gendered word ====
*Less inclusive: “Requests the Emergency Relief Coordinator to continue his/her efforts to strengthen the coordination of humanitarian assistance.”
*More inclusive: “Requests the Emergency Relief Coordinator to continue efforts to strengthen the coordination of humanitarian assistance.”
*Less inclusive: “A person must reside continuously in the Territory for 20 years before he may apply for permanent residence.”
*More inclusive: “A person must reside continuously in the Territory for 20 years before applying for permanent residence.”
==== Use the passive voice ====
The passive voice is not an appropriate option for all sentences in English, as employing the passive voice often changes the emphasis of the sentence. However, it does offer an option for avoiding gendered constructions.
*Less inclusive: “The author of a communication must have direct and reliable evidence of the situation he is describing.”
*Better: “The author of a communication describing a situation must have direct and reliable evidence of the situation being described.”
Note that the original context and emphasis could also be kept using “they are”, as in:
“The author of a communication must have direct and reliable evidence of the situation that they are describing.”

However, when that preference is not known, precedence is given to Ms. over Mrs., as the former is more inclusive and can refer to any woman, regardless of marital status. Note also, but increasingly rare, some will prefer Miss to Ms or Mrs. The use of the non-specific form of address Mx is also available but is not widely used and use should be clarified on an individual basis.

'''Use of Chair'''
*
ETSI has adopted the gender-neutral Chair as the expression for the Chair of a meeting. It can be assumed that this can be used as a form of address in oral and written work. It does not however preclude the use of other forms of address where they are generally agreed by the people involved, in particular the person who is the Chair. Such expressions include Madam Chair, Chairperson, Chairman, etc. Formal records of meetings and published documents are expected to use Chair as the term.

==== Avoid gender-biased expressions or expressions that reinforce gender stereotypes ====

====='''Discriminatory examples'''=====

*“She throws/runs/fights like a girl.”
*“In a manly way.”
*“Oh, that’s women’s work.”
*“Thank you to the ladies for making the room more beautiful.”
*“Men just don’t understand.”

'''Examples'''
*Less inclusive: “Guests are cordially invited to attend with their wives.”
*More inclusive: “Guests are cordially invited to attend with their partners.”
*Less inclusive: “Fathers babysit their children.”
*More inclusive: “Fathers care for their children.”

==== How do I know if I am using discriminatory language?====
Reverse the gender: Would reversing the designation or the term from masculine to feminine or vice versa change the meaning or emphasis of the sentence? Would it make the sentence sound odd?

'''Examples'''

*“Women should not seek out leadership positions.”
*“Men cannot do two things at the same time.”

=== Avoid gender-biased presentation that is not relevant (e.g. age) ===
==== Discriminatory example ====
“Anna (34) is an e-Governance expert, e-Estonia Briefing Centre managing director, and TED speaker. Maarten Mes is Managing Director of one2many, a world leader in Cell Broadcast.”
Ask yourself if the added information is relevant for the message of the text.

=== Be open to all forms of gender ===
The concepts of non-binary gender and gender fluidity are now widely understood. There are a range of norms that relate to the treatment of language relating to them, but they are not universally accepted.
Particular treatment is thus not indicated in this document, but it is highlighted as something where sensitivity and tolerance are necessary.

=== Informal terms ===
Informal terms such as “dude”, “mate”, “pal” and “buddy” are often used in conversation amongst friends but should not be used in a professional context. They may also have alternative meanings eg “mate” can be a noun or a verb and should therefore be avoided as far as possible.

=== Terms of endearment ===
Terms of endearment such as “love”, “darling”, “sweetheart”, “gorgeous”, “chick”, “boy”, “girl”, “baby”, “sugar”, “honey” and “sweetness” often make the gender of the speaker sound superior to the gender of the person spoken to in multigender conversations.
Such terms should generally be avoided as far as possible.

=== Make gender visible when it is relevant for communication ===
==== Using several different words ====
In cases in which highlighting gender would make the sentence more inclusive, several separate words can be used. This strategy should be used only when popular beliefs or preconceptions may obscure the presence or action of any gender.

'''Examples'''

*“Children should attend the first cooking class with their parents.”
*“All of the soldiers, men, women and non-binary, responded negatively to question 5 in the survey on gender inclusivity.”

==== Not recommended in general: Using feminine and masculine pronouns ====
“Pairing” is the use of both feminine and masculine forms (he or she; her or his). It is a strategy that may be used when the author/speaker wants to explicitly make both women and men visible.
This guide does not recommend the usage of pairing in general though, because of the following reasons:
*It may be distracting to the reader, in particular in narrative texts.
*Not everyone may consider themselves to fall into one of these two categories.
*It may also create inconsistencies or render the text less accurate - for example, in legal texts.

=== Do not make gender visible when it is not relevant for communication ===
==== Use gender-neutral words ====
*Less inclusive: “Mankind”
*More inclusive: “Humankind”; “humanity”; “human race”
*Less inclusive: “Plans to outsource some 19 services have not proceeded at the anticipated pace, as there are significant manpower shortages.”
*More inclusive: “Plans to outsource some 19 services have not proceeded at the anticipated pace, as there are significant staffing shortages.”
*Less inclusive: “Man-made”
*More inclusive “Artificial”; “human-created”

==== Using plural pronouns/adjectives ====

Plural pronouns may be used as a shortcut to ensure gender inclusiveness (words such as they, them, their). Care should be taken to ensure that there is no confusion using a plural pronoun in the singular that there is no confusing plural meaning – especially if there is a legal use of the material.
The plural form is also widely used in speech and would be quite acceptable in meetings and informal conversations at ETSI.

'''Example'''

*“Before submitting your document, send it to the focal point for their review; they will return it to you with comments.”

It is noted that there are several schemes of genderless pronoun. For example, zie for he or she, zim for him/her and zir for his/her. Whilst their use is not precluded in discussions where participants understand those pronouns, it is suggested that they are not used in written correspondence and the plural form or other neutral forms of speech are used as far as possible.
==== Use the pronoun “one”====

*Less inclusive: “A staff member in Antarctica earns less than he would in New York.”
*More inclusive: “You earn less in Antarctica than New York.” or “A staff member in Antarctica earns less than one in New York.”

==== Use the relative pronoun “who”====
*Less inclusive: “If a complainant is not satisfied with the board’s decision, he can ask for a rehearing.”
*More inclusive: “A complainant who is not satisfied with the board’s decision can ask for a rehearing.”

====Use a plural antecedent====
When referring to generic subjects, plural antecedents may be used in order to avoid gendered pronouns.

*Less inclusive: “A substitute judge must certify that he has familiarized himself with the record of the proceedings.”
*More inclusive: “Substitute judges must certify that they have familiarized themselves with the record of the proceedings.”
==== Omit the gendered word ====
*Less inclusive: “Requests the Emergency Relief Coordinator to continue his/her efforts to strengthen the coordination of humanitarian assistance.”
*More inclusive: “Requests the Emergency Relief Coordinator to continue efforts to strengthen the coordination of humanitarian assistance.”
*Less inclusive: “A person must reside continuously in the Territory for 20 years before he may apply for permanent residence.”
*More inclusive: “A person must reside continuously in the Territory for 20 years before applying for permanent residence.”
==== Use the passive voice ====
The passive voice is not an appropriate option for all sentences in English, as employing the passive voice often changes the emphasis of the sentence. However, it does offer an option for avoiding gendered constructions.
*Less inclusive: “The author of a communication must have direct and reliable evidence of the situation he is describing.”
*Better: “The author of a communication describing a situation must have direct and reliable evidence of the situation being described.”
Note that the original context and emphasis could also be kept using “they are”, as in:
“The author of a communication must have direct and reliable evidence of the situation that they are describing.”

Use of gender inclusive language Guide

2024-01-30T14:59:38Z

Raffy:

== Executive summary ==
This guide discusses which language is appropriate for the use in ETSI deliverables and gives examples of how to best avoid common mistakes.
== Introduction ==
The ETSI community is diverse and includes all kinds of organisation, from all over the globe. It is therefore important that the way in which ETSI deliverables are phrased is representative of the whole community. This means that ETSI staff and all people working in the different ETSI groups should be conscious about the language they use to not unconsciously leave out or misrepresent parts of the community or society.
This guide focusses in its first release on gender-inclusive language but could be broadened to other aspects in the future.
“Using gender-inclusive language means speaking and writing in a way that does not discriminate against a particular sex, social gender or gender identity, and does not perpetuate gender stereotypes. Given the key role of language in shaping cultural and social attitudes, using gender-inclusive language is a powerful way to promote gender equality and eradicate gender bias.” [statement from the United Nations on gender-inclusive language].
This guide includes a number of recommendations that are a direct copy from the United Nations guidelines on gender-inclusive language, since they are internationally recognised and therefore set a global standard for how to communicate in a gender-inclusive manner.
== Scope ==
The present document focusses on giving guidance on how to communicate using gender-inclusive language in a written form. The aim of this document is to facilitate the development of gender inclusive ETSI deliverables.

== Guidelines ==
=== When to apply ===
These Guidelines include a number of strategies to help ETSI staff and ETSI community use inclusive language. They may be applied to any type of communication, whether it is oral or written, formal or informal, or addressed to an internal or external audience.
When deciding what strategies to use, ETSI staff and ETSI community should:
* Take into account the type of text/oral communication, the context, the audience and the purpose of the communication.
* Ensure that the text is readable and the text/oral communication clear, fluid and concise.
* Seek to combine different strategies throughout the text/oral communication that allow all categories of the expected audience to be included.
There are different areas that may need extra attention like the use of gender, race, age, cultural background, religion, sexuality etc. Most of these areas may not seem to occur in ETSI documents including standards but being aware of them is important to avoid biased text.
The following chapters give guidance on how to avoid biased text with regard to gender, since this is regarded as the most critical area at the time of the first draft of this guidance.

=== Gender in English ===
In English, there is a difference between “grammatical gender”, “gender as a social construct” (which refers to the roles, behaviours, activities and attributes that a given society at a certain time considers appropriate for men, women or nonbinary people) and “sex” as a biological characteristic of living beings.
English has very few gender markers: the pronouns and possessives (he, she, her, his, they and their); and some nouns and forms of address. Most English nouns do not have grammatical gender forms (teacher, president), whereas a few nouns are specifically masculine or feminine (actor/actress, waiter/waitress). Some nouns that once ended in -man now have neutral equivalents that are used to include all genders (police officer for policeman/policewoman, spokesperson for spokesman, chair/chairperson for chairman, etc).
A challenge for gender-inclusive communication in English is the use of the masculine form by default. For example, “Every Permanent Representative must submit his credentials to Protocol.”
This is why the following chapter on best practices/strategies provides examples how these types of sentences can be written in a different way to avoid the direct mentioning of one gender only.
=== Best practices/strategies for the use of gender in texts, events: ===
A number of strategies can be applied, when speaking or writing in English, to be more gender-inclusive:
===== Forms of address =====
When referring to or addressing specific individuals, use forms of address and pronouns that are consistent with their gender identity (e.g. Ms. for females, Mr. for males). If unsure, use neutral terms like the delegate, the chair, the convenor, etc, or their name (e.g. Robin or Robin Jones) or titles (if appropriate) like Professor Smith.
Alternatively, and if the situation permits, ask the persons addressed or written about what pronoun and form of address should be used for them.
There should also be consistency in the way people are referred to: if one of them is addressed by their name, last name, courtesy title, or profession, the others should be addressed similarly.

'''Examples'''

*Less inclusive “Professor Smith (surname and title for a man) and Madeline (first name for a woman) will attend.”
*More inclusive “Professor Smith and Professor Jones will attend (surname and title for both).”

'''Ms. or Mrs.?'''

*Care should be taken to use the form of address preferred by each individual. However, when that preference is not known, precedence is given to Ms. over Mrs., as the former is more inclusive and can refer to any woman, regardless of marital status. Note also, but increasingly rare, some will prefer Miss to Ms or Mrs. The use of the non-specific form of address Mx is also available but is not widely used and use should be clarified on an individual basis.

'''Use of Chair'''
*
ETSI has adopted the gender-neutral Chair as the expression for the Chair of a meeting. It can be assumed that this can be used as a form of address in oral and written work. It does not however preclude the use of other forms of address where they are generally agreed by the people involved, in particular the person who is the Chair. Such expressions include Madam Chair, Chairperson, Chairman, etc. Formal records of meetings and published documents are expected to use Chair as the term.

==== Avoid gender-biased expressions or expressions that reinforce gender stereotypes ====

====='''Discriminatory examples'''=====

*“She throws/runs/fights like a girl.”
*“In a manly way.”
*“Oh, that’s women’s work.”
*“Thank you to the ladies for making the room more beautiful.”
*“Men just don’t understand.”

'''Examples'''
*Less inclusive: “Guests are cordially invited to attend with their wives.”
*More inclusive: “Guests are cordially invited to attend with their partners.”
*Less inclusive: “Fathers babysit their children.”
*More inclusive: “Fathers care for their children.”

==== How do I know if I am using discriminatory language?====
Reverse the gender: Would reversing the designation or the term from masculine to feminine or vice versa change the meaning or emphasis of the sentence? Would it make the sentence sound odd?
