To use this checklist, you will need data from health authorities (the community has compiled a handy list here!), and knowledge of local laws or regulations.

If the checklist recommends that you can proceed, you must submit the survey. While you do not need to wait for further approval, you are expected to double check that your community still passes this checklist a day before your meetup. The information collected in this survey will only be shared with Community Deputies, and will only be used to follow up with organizers following the meetup and/or in the instance of a COVID-related emergency as related to your meetup community. 

If the checklist recommends that you do not proceed, the Community team expects that you will not organize an in-person meetup at this time. You do not need to submit the survey in this case, but you can provide feedback on the survey, or reach out to Community Deputies if you have questions at [email protected].
