Presented by The National Center for Women in Information Technology (NCWIT) in collaboration with the Rocky Mountain Advanced Computing Consortium Women in High Performance Computing Chapter (RMACC WHPC), this presentation explores biases and barriers that often impede diverse participation in computing and identifies key features of strategic, research-based approaches to address them.
