Session Description

This panel will present a multifaceted approach that employs multiple
strategies to attract and support underrepresented individuals in their
pursuit of computing. The aim is to encourage participants to explore ways
to broaden participation in the computing field. Additionally, we will share
longitudinal data, along with reflections, recommendations, and success
stories from participants. These insights will be valuable for those looking to
replicate similar outreach initiatives in their own communities.

Many thousands of colleges and universities worldwide have committed to becoming carbon-neutral in their own operations in the next decade or two. Despite these commitments, most institutions are struggling to implement them at the scale and speed needed to meet these challenging targets. There are, however, some examples of colleges successfully planning and achieving breakthrough economic, energy and climate performance in less than a decade. The common factors that enabled this rapid decarbonization to not only be planned but also implemented will be explored, along with how these experiences ... (continued)
