Abstract

This Special Interest Group (SIG) will collaboratively explore potential futures of the ACM Special Interest Group on Computer-Human Interaction (SIGCHI) on the organization’s 40th anniversary. Taking stock of where we are now, forty years after inception, our goal will be to engage members of the SIGCHI community in a participatory approach towards imagining how SIGCHI might evolve, and how it can ensure that the elements it values most, such as connection, inclusion, and equity, among others, can be nurtured as the field evolves, and technologies come and go.
