Broadening Participation in Computing
IEEE’s mission is to advance technology for the benefit of humanity. We have a long-standing precedent to remain neutral in geo-political matters and engage with our members and technical communities in accordance with our constitution and bylaws and abide by applicable laws. IEEE’s relationship is with our members, authors, readers, other stakeholders, and with members of the public – and we value our ability as a global organization to connect with technologists around the world. |
IEEE Computer Society Open Conference Statement
Broadening participation in computing is central to the goals of the IEEE Computer Society and all of its conferences. The IEEE Computer Society is firmly committed to team compositions in all sponsored activities — including but not limited to technical committees, steering committees, conference organizations, standards committees, and ad hoc committees — that are representative of the entire global community.
IEEE’s mission to foster technological innovation and excellence to benefit humanity requires the talents and perspectives of people with many disciplinary backgrounds.
All individuals are entitled to participate in any IEEE Computer Society activity free of discrimination and harassment.
