The May 2026 edition of ACM-W Connections is here!

As we move into summer, we continue to celebrate the people and stories that shape ACM-W’s global community.

In her Message from the ACM-W Chair, Rukiye Altin reflects on the energy, care, and dedication that ACM-W volunteers bring to our work every day, and on the joy of finally meeting in person and online in Edinburgh for Global Executive Committee and regional communications meetings.

We also celebrate service and leadership, and congratulate Jodi Tims on receiving the ACM Outstanding Service Award.

🎙️ In Voices of ACM-W, we hear from Lynda Hardman. Her journey across hypertext, multimedia, standardisation, and human-centred AI invites us to think about how computing environments shape society and how they should be designed to work for everyone.

🌱 This month’s U-RISE feature introduces Antigoni Parmaxi, whose path from classical studies to human-centred educational technology shows that there is no single route into computing.

🏳️‍🌈 As Pride Month approaches, “We Are More Alike Than We Are Different” offers a thoughtful reflection on gender identity and inclusion. It is a reminder that our community is strongest when people are seen, respected, and supported.

✨ In ACM-W Above and Beyond, we spotlight Dr Charu Kalra, an ACM-W scholar whose journey has taken her through compiler and optimisation research to her current work on next-generation AI-powered logistics technology.

Across these stories, there is a common thread: visibility, service, and community matter. Whether through leadership, scholarship, research, advocacy, or storytelling, ACM-W continues to support, celebrate, and advocate for women in computing around the world.

As we move into a new ACM-W year, this message from ACM-W Global Chair Rukiye Altin is a reminder that communities do not grow on their own—they grow because people choose to contribute, support one another, and imagine new possibilities together.

As ACM-W's global reach is expanding, we are grateful to our dedicated volunteers who keep our community connected. As Rukiye writes, ACM-W grows because people step forward to organise events, communicate ACM-W's mission, mentor others, fundraise, write their stories, coordinate projects, and build opportunities for others.

Thank you to all of our volunteers, chapter leaders, members, and supporters around the world who make this community possible.

As Jodi reflects:

"My wide professional network and the deep friendships I have developed over the years are constant reminders that investing in service pays dividends that last a lifetime."
