Computer science does not start at university. By then, many girls may already have turned away from STEM. In an interview originally written and published by IPN ICT Research Platform Netherlands, CWI’s Lynda Hardman reflects on her academic career - from hypertext and multimedia to her work for equity, diversity and inclusion in informatics. The interview shows how her view of the field changed over time: access is not only about information, but also about who feels invited to take part. Recently awarded the IPN Distinguished Service Award, Hardman looks back on the experiences, choices and insights that shaped her work.
