The open exchange of ideas and the freedom of thought and expression are central to the aims and goals of ACM and its conferences.  These aims and goals require an environment that recognizes the inherent worth of every person and group, that fosters dignity, understanding, and mutual respect, and that embraces diversity.
 
ACM is firmly committed to prohibiting discrimination at its conferences against individuals because of race, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, marital status religion, national origin, ancestry, or disability.  All individuals are entitled to participate in any ACM activity free of discrimination, including harassment based on any of the above factors.

ACM is concerned about discriminatory legislation in various locations and will work with conference organizers to best address location related issues.

Volunteer commitment and coordination is the foundation that makes an ACM conference successful. ACM provides a comprehensive planning guide with instructions and best practices to help create the best possible event.

The Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces community is where researchers and practitioners will meet and discuss state-of-the-art advances at the intersection of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). The theme for IUI 2025 is Sustainability, covering a wide variety of topics such as intelligent user interfaces accounting social inclusion, interactive intelligent systems for environmental sustainability, and more. Keynote speakers are Albrecht Schmidt (Ludwig-Maximilian University), Jerry Fails (Boise State University), and Q. Vera Liao (Microsoft Research ) The event is being held in Caligari, Italy.

The ACM SIGIR Conference on Human Information Interaction and Retrieval invites submissions focused on user-centered approaches to the design and evaluation of systems for information access, seeking, retrieval, and use. Contributions may explore improvements to existing systems and interfaces; propose novel theories, models, and systems; or focus on understanding individual and group interactions with information and information systems. Sessions include "Access for Heads Up Computing," "Responsible AI From the Lens of an Information Retrieval Researcher," and more. The conference is being held in Melbourne, Australia.

The Conference for Architectural Support for Programming Languages and Operating Systems is the premier academic forum for multidisciplinary computer systems research spanning hardware, software, and their interaction. It focuses on computer architecture, programming languages, operating systems, and associated areas such as networking and storage. Workshops and tutorials include "SErverless Systems, Applications, and MEthodologies," "Systems and Methods for Sustainable Large-Scale AI," "Efficient Systems and Compilers for Generative AI," and more. The conference will be co-located withEuroSys,and will be held in Rotterdam, the Netherlands.

EuroSys—the European chapter of ACM SIGOPS—is a premier conference on various aspects of systems software research and development, including its ramifications for hardware and applications. Topics of interest for the conference include: operating systems, database systems, real-time systems, networked systems, storage systems, middleware, distributed, parallel, and embedded computing systems. Workshops include "Principles and Practice of Consistency for Distributed Data," "Machine Learning and Systems," "Empowering Software Development through Machine Learning," and more. The conference will be co-located withASPLOS, and will be held in Rotterdam, the Netherlands.

The ACM CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems is the premier international conference of Human-Computer Interaction. Workshops include "Body Politics: Unpacking Tensions and Future Perspectives for Body-Centric Design Research in HCI," "Beyond Glasses: Future Directions for XR Interactions within the Physical World," "Human-AI Interaction for Augmented Reasoning: Improving Human Reflective and Critical Thinking with Artificial Intelligence," "Bridging HCI and Industrial Manufacturing," and more. The conference will be held in Yokohama, Japan.

The ACM/IEEE International Conference on Software Engineering is the premier software engineering forum where researchers, practitioners, and educators gather together to present and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, experiences and issues in the field of software engineering. Tutorials include "Quantum Software Testing," "Social, Legal, Ethical, Empathetic and Cultural Requirements: from Elicitation to Verification," and more. Keynote speakers include David Lorge Parnas (McMaster University), Neha Rungta (Amazon Web Services), and Patricia Lago (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam). The event is being held in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.

In March 2020 ACM formed a Presidential Task Force (PTF) to help conference organizers transition their events to online. The PTF is working on a guide to offer practical advice and shed light on the largely unfamiliar territory of online conferencing.

The report, availablehere, includes pointers to a live document with additional resources. We welcome comments, suggestions and experience reports from the community.

On March 3, 2022, ACM’s Executive Committee decided not to hold any conferences in Russia while the conflict in the Ukraine and the humanitarian crisis in Europe continue. This decision applies to ACM sponsored conferences and workshops as well as in-cooperation events.
