PLDI 2025 will host several events focused on promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion. You can register for any of these events during registration by marking the appropriate boxes, but is not required for attendance. We hope to see you there!
Please contact Mae Milano (mpmilano@cs.princeton.edu) with questions.
Women@PLDI Dinner
The Women@PLDI dinner will be held during the conference with the goal of creating a women-centered space, building relationships, and informal networking.
Any PLDI attendee who identifies as a woman, or who finds fellowship in women-centered events, is welcome. This explicitly includes nonbinary, transmasc, agender/gender-questioning individuals, and trans individuals of all stripes who find fellowship in women-centered events, including students, post-docs, faculty, and industry professionals.
LGBTQ@PLDI Lunch
The LGBTQ@PLDI lunch will be held during the conference with the goal of bringing together members of the LGBTQ+ community and provide opportunities for networking and community building.
Lunch will be served in the conference hotel in a private section of the main lunchroom. Anyone who identifies as a member of the LGBTQIA+ community at POPL is welcome, including students, post-docs, faculty, and industry professionals. Note that this area may be partially visible from the lunch lines; if you are seeking fellowship with the PL LGBTQIA+ community but concerned about being seen attending this lunch, please feel free to reach out to Mae Milano (mpmilano@cs.princeton.edu) if comfortable.
URM@PLDI lunch
The URM@PLDI lunch will be held during the conference with the goal of bringing together all who are under-represented within the SIGPLAN community. This lunch is explicitly intended to be a “big tent” event, and is open to all who are under-represented in the community, with a special emphasis on those who are not already served by a dedicated PLDI DEI event.
