The Australasian Chapter of the global organisation Women in High Performance Computing (WHPC) began as a collaboration between New Zealand eScience Infrastructure, NCI Australia, Pawsey Supercomputing Research Centre, Monash University, and Australasian eResearch Organisations (AeRO).

Launched in 2020, the Chapter (WHPC+ AusNZ)* is celebrating three years of hosting events and creating spaces where anyone interested in supporting diversity & inclusion in our HPC and eResearch communities can feel welcome, connect with others, and contribute to discussions and positive change.

This lightning talk will share:

  • an overview of the Chapter's purpose and objectives
  • highlights from the last three years of activity
  • ways you can get involved

We welcome anyone interested in learning more about the Chapter or who is keen to connect with others interested in supporting diversity & inclusion in HPC and eResearch.

*Our Chapter has added a "+" to our name to encourage people from all walks of life, not just gender, to join and participate in our community.
