A global community of researchers working towards equity and access

EAAMO (Equity and Access in Algorithms, Mechanisms, and Optimization) is a community of over 3000 people coming from 130+ institutions in 50 countries, that bring together a range of expertise to tackle problems in marginalized groups around the world.

Become part
of the eaamo community.

  • The ACM conference on Equity and Access in Algorithms, Mechanisms, and Optimization (EAAMO) aims to highlight work where techniques from algorithms, optimization, and mechanism design, along with insights from the social sciences and humanistic studies, can help improve equity and access to opportunity for historically disadvantaged and underserved communities. The conference will provide an international forum for presenting research papers, problem pitches, survey and position papers, new datasets, and software demonstrations towards the goal of bridging research and practice.

    Visit the EAAMO 2024 Conference website.

  • EAAMO Bridges is our year-round effort to connect research and practice. The core of Bridges is our working groups who meet regularly to work on a specific topic, such as algorithms in law, online labor markets, or civic participation—to name a few.

    Visit the EAAMO Bridges website to find out about our current working groups and how to join.

Colloquium Talk - Alejandra Echeverri Ochoa

Save the date for the 2nd of our LAC Colloquium Series, in which Alejandra Echeverri Ochoa explores the evolution of biodiversity governance in Colombia.

Join us for an eye-opening exploration of how biodiversity has become a critical part of Colombia’s key sectoral policies, helping to address climate change and poverty, hear about how strong coordination across sectors and actors can help achieve lasting environmental impact, and, finally, how the intersection of nature-based and culture-based tourism is unlocking the potential of Colombia’s ecotourism policies, creating a path for both conservation and community development.
