• Abstract: Networking is central to careers in computer science, where a globally distributed and diverse community increasingly collaborates across institutional and geographic boundaries, often in hybrid and remote settings. However, access to effective networking is shaped by structural and personal factors, including geography, funding, language, identity, personality, and caregiving responsibilities. Building on prior work, this workshop focuses on women in computing to examine lived experiences of networking and the barriers they encounter. Through a community-driven discussion grounded in a factor-based framework, the workshop aims to surface overlooked challenges and foster shared understanding. Ultimately, it seeks to inform more inclusive, equitable, and accessible networking practices within the computer science community.
