Call for Contributions : Informatica Feminale:
27th International Summer University for Women in Computing,
from 14 to 29 August 2024 on place at the University of Bremen, Germany
https://www.informatica-feminale.de/eng/

******************************************



Dear Readers,

The University of Bremen in Germany starts the 27th Informatica Feminale 
– the International Summer University for Women in Computing. It will be 
on place in Bremen from August 14 to 29, 2024. Computer scientists from 
academia or industry and women working inter-disciplinarily in the field 
are cordially invited to develop and submit course offers for the summer 
university 2024.
Course offers can be submitted until February 15, 2024 at 
https://www.informatica-feminale.de/eng/.

Topics from the broad field of Computer Science, ICT, and Informatics 
(theoretical, practical, technical or applied computing) are welcome.
The Informatica Feminale is an open, explorative teaching and learning 
environment. Topics such as entering higher education, developing a 
student career, transition into labor market and lifelong academic 
learning are addressed. Courses on elementary skills are in demand from 
undergraduate students. Combinations of theory and practical units – 
including excerpts to deepen regular courses – are of great interest. 
Special topics from all areas are also particularly welcome. Courses to 
strengthen the social skills of female students are also included.

Inter/national lecturers and students meet at the Informatica Feminale 
in Bremen to exchange and to use the summer universities as a place for 
experimentation, with the intention to develop and imply new impulses in 
computer science and informatics. The summer university is aiming at the 
professional networking of students and the advanced training for 
computer scientists on an academic level.

Lecturers could take the summer university as a test field for new 
teaching formats, to integrate topics such as sustainability into their 
computer science courses and to get experience with highly engaged and 
interested participants. Furthermore, a special training program for 
lecturers will be arranged. The Informatica Feminale is part of the 
regular course program at the University of Bremen. Teaching assignments 
can be given to lecturers.

The women’s network Informatica Feminale and its sister 
Ingenieurinnen-Sommeruni are a place to exchange about technical and 
social developments, which we meet in our every-day life and which are 
designed by ourselves as technical experts. Proposals from the field of 
computer science and its interdisciplinary subjects are welcome.
An important topic will be digital sustainability with focus on 
ecological and social impacts of digital technologies. Desired courses 
could address for example protection of natural resources and 
optimization within ICT systems and infrastructures, green coding, 
energy efficiency, recycling and circular economy, regulations and 
standardization, human rights and labor law in production processes, 
participatory design, development and consumption of ICT products or 
services that better serve the common good. We also welcome offers that 
teach basics about the sustainability goals of the agendas 2030 in UN 
and EU as well as about the cross-sectional dimension of gender equality.
We especially invite teaching offers, which deal with applications of 
technical know-how in areas of life and work (for example within care, 
education, health, food, household, mobility, social networking, 
publicity, sports, militarization, etc.) from feminist perspectives. 
Submissions on topics such as gender, equality, technology and ethics 
are highly welcome.
A program committee will decide on the contributions. We particularly 
encourage international lecturers to apply. Course languages are German 
and English.

Companies with gender sensible organizational concepts and successful 
personal management strategies to promote women engineers to a broad 
spectrum of leading positions are invited to present their best 
practices to the participants of the Informatica Feminale. There will be 
various chances to meet graduates of computer science and engineering at 
both the parallel summer universities Informatica Feminale and 
Ingenieurinnen-Sommeruni.

Please forward this Call for Contributions to interested colleagues, 
co-workers and students.
More information and the application form can be found here

Yours sincerely
Henrike Illig and Veronika Oechtering
