===================================================

We hereby invite workshop proposals for NordiCHI 2016!

Workshops at NordiCHI 2016 provide opportunity for debate and co-development of ideas and approaches. They may focus on specific concerns or questions, or they may explore broader emerging topics. Workshops are based on participants’ active engagement and contribution.

Successful workshop proposals for NordiCHI 2016 should make full use of the workshop format by avoiding “mini-conference”-style paper presentations, and instead prioritize debate and joint action. Novel formats for submissions and for activities are encouraged. We also encourage proposals that reach out to other disciplines and traditions, and to industry, art, activism, and other practices to advance constructive and critical discussions.

Workshops are full-day events held on Sunday and Monday, 23-24 October 2016. Workshops should aim to attract 10-25 participants, and run for around six working hours, with scheduled morning, lunch and afternoon breaks.

Important Dates:
Submission of workshop proposals: 5 May 2016
Workshops: Sunday and Monday 23-24 October 2016
