BEHAVIORAL STANDARDS

Burning Man’s culture honors and promotes freedom of expression, unless that expression harms others.

The Burning Man organization that supports the year-round activities of the Burning Man community, has zero tolerance for behavior that is non-consensual, abusive, or harmful to others.

This includes and is not limited to:

• Violence – both physical and verbal
• Harassment, including non-consensual interactions
• Coercion (abuse of power – including but not limited to sex, drugs, resources, etc.)
• Sexual Assault
• Intoxication while on duty
• Theft or Vandalism
