DEI Project Badging is an initiative developed at the CHAOSS project to recognize open source projects that exemplify best practices for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) work within their respective communities. The initiative uses CHAOSS DEI metrics as a benchmark to reflect on DEI efforts in an open source project. The objectives of CHAOSS DEI Project Badging are to (1) enable people to signal their ongoing efforts in improving and prioritizing DEI within their communities, (2) to recognize projects and communities for their DEI efforts, and (3) to help communities make informed decisions and take thoughtful actions in creating more inclusive and equitable environments. DEI Project Badging is available at: https://badging.chaoss.community/
