- The group provides a safe environment for people interested in `R`. - Code of conduct: [https://github.com/rladies/starter-kit/wiki/Code-of-Conduct#portuguese](https://github.com/rladies/starter-kit/wiki/Code-of-Conduct#portuguese) - All of the content presented is made available freely on github in portuguese: - [https://github.com/rladies/meetup-presentations_sao-paulo](https://github.com/rladies/meetup-presentations_sao-paulo) - **All of the activities are free to attend** - The gratuity is very relevant in the Brazilian context: the few `R` courses available in Portuguese are often expensive, and there is no other active `R` group in São Paulo (the biggest city in Brazil!) that provides this type of content free of charge. --- class: middle ## Conclusion - The increasing popularity of the R-Ladies São Paulo shows us how important it is to support it, - It can be the key to motivate the creation of other chapters in Brazil, - It helps to increase the strength of the Brazilian R community and the inclusion of underrepresented groups. <div class="figure" style="text-align: center"> <img src="img/alissonhorst.jpg" alt="<center><b>Illustration by Allison Horst - Twitter: <a href='https://twitter.com/allison_horst/status/1066382489080389633'> @allison_horst</a> </center></b>" width="40%" /> <p class="caption"><center><b>Illustration by Allison Horst - Twitter: <a href='https://twitter.com/allison_horst/status/1066382489080389633'> @allison_horst</a> </center></b></p> </div> --- class: center, middle ### To find out more, visit [R-Ladies Global](https://rladies.org/) & [R-Ladies Shiny App](https://gqueiroz.shinyapps.io/rshinylady/). <div class="figure" style="text-align: center"> <img src="img/rshinyladyglobal.PNG" alt="<center><b>R-Ladies Shiny App - 17/06/2019</center></b>" width="100%" /> <p class="caption"><center><b>R-Ladies Shiny App - 17/06/2019</center></b></p> </div> --- class: center, middle ## Thanks!
