Open to all genders, this event is aimed at celebrating the role and impact of women in computing, and supporting participants at different stages in their STEM careers by offering an international, multisectoral, and multidisciplinary forum to share experience and knowledge, get constructive feedback, and promote meaningful networking.

The event includes a number of activities such as a hackathon, a career fair, keynote talks, tech talks, posters sessions, workshops, and panels by “role models”.

This year’s theme, Responsible Computing for Gender Equality, highlights the gender gap on computing and puts the stress on the utilitarian nature of computing, as a tool to augment human capabilities and contribute to the progress of society.

A responsible perspective of computing has to permeate different domains, including artificial intelligence, software engineering, cibersecurity, human-computer interaction… so that relevant concerns on the impact of digital technologies are taken into account.

One of these concerns is gender equality, which should be addressed by developing new strategies to eliminate all kinds of biases not only in data and algorithms but also in user interfaces and in the design of services.

Join the vibrant ACM womENcourage™ community and celebrate with us the role and impact of women in technology, and the Women/Mujeres who are changing and will change our world for the better!!!
