ABSTRACT
As HCI Across Borders aspires to celebrate its fifth year at CHI, and the CHI 2020 venue of Hawaii signifies a coming together of four continents, the goal of the 2020 symposium is to bring our focus to themes that unify and foster solidarity across borders. Thus we select the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals as our object of study. Many communities within CHI focus on the constrained and ephemeral nature of resources, including the HCI for Development (HCI4D), Sustainable HCI (SHCI), and Crisis Informatics (CI) communities, among several others. We contend that it is time for these communities to come together in addressing issues of global relevance and impact, and for many more to care. Additionally, as the venue for CHI shifts to Asia in 2021, we aspire to prepare the conference and its participants to grapple with themes that might offer a different and novel perspective when engaged within the Global South.

This Changes Sustainable HCI
CHI '18: Proceedings of the 2018 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsMore than a decade into Sustainable HCI (SHCI) research, the community is still struggling to converge on a shared understanding of sustainability and HCI's role in addressing it. We think this is largely a positive sign, reflective of maturity; yet, ...
