ACS is bringing together business, government, education and not-for-profit sectors to help solve these urgent, overarching issues. We have created goals and are taking action in these key areas:
Australia needs greater female representation in the tech workforce, especially at a senior level.
Without more accepting workplace cultures, the potential of some of the next great minds may go unrealised.
Achieving more Indigenous tech experts requires widespread change to access and opportunities.
Technology is built around progress, so we must embrace the LGBTQIA+ community.
Technology is a necessity but millions, including a generation of ‘edge users’, struggle with access. We must ensure that no one is left behind.
As technology evolves, our carbon footprint will only become larger, so we must act now.
As an ACS member, you can stand with us as we lead the charge to create solutions and opportunities that affect you, your organisation and Australia’s tech sector. Here’s how you can start taking action:
