Sumario: | Welcome to the 22nd ACM Conference on Computer-Supported Cooperative Work and Social Computing (CSCW). CSCW has always been an exciting, dynamic and welcoming research community, bridging between the social and the technological. If anything, it seems like the role of this community in society at large has become even more critical in recent years. We hope that our community is amongst the best-placed to understand the impact of technology on society, and design technologies that contribute in positive and meaningful ways. This year, we experimented with new ideas: such as adding Meta chairs, whose results you can hear Monday @ 2:30; and inviting the Diversity & Inclusion chairs into a consultancy role for the conference broadly. In addition, we made gender-neutral bathroom facilities a non-negotiable part of the hotel contract. As a result of your compelling and thought-provoking submissions, and the committee's dedicated efforts, the conference is full of exciting work: in addition to the high- quality papers, the conference features 7 novel demos, 6 panels, 16 workshops, a doctoral consortium and 63 engaging posters.
