CfP: Workshop on Designing Accessible Systems for Users with Multiple Impairments

by Sayan Sarcar

We invite researchers and assistive technologists to share their perspectives related to challenges in designing accessible systems and assistive technologies that consider the multidimensional and often complex needs of users with multiple impairments. Workshop date: 23rd October 2022 (via Zoom) Historically, the accessibility community has focused on designing assistive technologies and systems related to single categories of impairments. While this approach is justifiable and contributes to the advancement of the field, many researchers argue that designing technologies for one impairment at a time contributes to an oversimplification of disability and does not reflect the real-world experiences of a significant number of users who live with multiple impairments. How can the accessibility field leverage theories and concepts from other disciplines (e.g. disability studies, medical humanities, social work, engineering, education) to support more appropriate and inclusive technologies for users with complex needs? How can future assistive technologies consider diverse sensory, cognitive, and physical characteristics? Please note that any prior experience with users with multiple impairments is not a requirement for participating in this workshop. More information about abstract submission and registration can be found here: https://www.mpdas-assets22.org/home Deadline to submit your contribution: 15th September 2022 Looking forward to having you join us! -- Workshop Organizing Committee [image: width=] <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campai…> Virus-free.www.avast.com <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campai…> <#DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2>

[CFP] MUM '22 Doctoral Consortium

by Catia Prandi

====== MUM ’22 Doctoral Consortium ====== LINK: https://www.mum-conf.org/2022/dc/ Submission deadline: October 3rd, 2022 (AoE) ______________________________________ MUM 2022, the 21st International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Multimedia will be held in Lisbon, Portugal, November 27th - 30th. To apply for participation in the doctoral school, we ask you to submit a 2 to 3 pages long paper using the ACM interim template. The paper should describe the context and motivation of your PhD research, the problem and aims that drive your research and your research objectives and/or questions. It should further describe and explain your (proposed) research approach and methods, a tentative timeline, and include a discussion of any results you may already have. Please also include the context of your PhD, i.e. the university programme in which you conduct your PhD, the status of your PhD, the expected completion date, and any other relevant information on your PhD situation. Submissions will not be peer-reviewed. The process will be headed by a panel of 5 experts including the DC chairs, who will be present (in person wherever possible) at the MUM 2022 conference DC discussion to advise students and guide the discussion following the students presentations of their work (more details on how the event will be organise will follow in the next weeks). We will select participants to the DC prioritising those who would likely benefit most, i.e. students who have a clear plan as a foundation for discussion, but are not already too advanced in their PhD, to still be able to benefit from advice in developing their dissertation (e.g. Students that are in the pre Doctoral Proposal defence - so that the discussion at the DC might help them refine if not shape it). Submissions must be submitted via EasyChair. Accepted students will be asked to prepare a presentation of their PhD research (the length of the presentation will vary depending on submission and acceptance rates). Besides the submitted document and presentation, students will be asked to prepare a poster which will be included in the MUM 2022 poster track to give students the opportunity to showcase and discuss their work beyond the DC session. Moreover, the contributions will be made available on the conference webpage to make them accessible to the public (but not included in the proceedings).

Call for talks: IxDA's Interaction 23 conference in Zurich. Submission deadline Sept 4, 2022.

by Anton Fedosov

Dear colleagues, On behalf of the program committee team, I’d like to draw your attention to the upcoming Interaction 23<https://interaction23.ixda.org/> week to be held in Zurich from 25th February until 3d March 2023. Interaction 23 is a premier venue for interaction design practitioners, researchers, and educators to discuss emergent practice-based challenges, share best practices in the discipline, and call for a change through design. It is organized by the Interaction Design Association (IxDA). This year’s CfP<https://interaction23.ixda.org/call-for-proposals> theme includes several topical areas highly relevant to HCI research community: decentralization by design, supporting decision-making practices, creating new work experiences, and lowering environmental impact of technologies. Check-out Interactions 23 call for proposals below and submit an idea for a talk, a workshop or a panel by 4th September 2022. Submissions are in a very lightweight format! Interaction 23 is a great way to establish and strengthen the links between academia and a wide community of (interaction) design practitioners. We hope many of you decide to participate. Best regards, Thomas Link, Karmen Franinović, Daniel Boos, Anton Fedosov, and the Interactions 23 Team. Dr. Anton Fedosov People and Computing Lab (ZPAC) antonf(a)ifi.uzh.ch<mailto:antonf@ifi.uzh.ch> antonfedosov.com<https://antonfedosov.com/> University of Zurich Department of Informatics Binzmühlestrasse 14 CH-8050 Zürich Switzerland Call for Proposals for Interaction 23 Allegra, Ciao, Salut and Grüezi, Greetings from Switzerland, the land where Grid systems, Helvetica and melted cheese are at home. And exactly because solid defining factors of the past are icons around the world, we invite you to join us in (re)defining the power of design in our Interaction 23 conference. Interaction 23 is a call – a call to formulate essential design positions about how we want to (re)define life across the planet. The inevitable transformations of personal lives and social structures have gathered momentum. To be defined/designed… The last two years saw the redefinition of collaborative efforts, workplace culture and collaboration in general. Moving into the era of ‘hybrid everything’, Interaction 23 - the conference to be defined by you - will support participants joining physically and virtually from all over the world. We seek talks, panels, sessions, and workshops by individuals from all walks of life, in any language, anywhere in the world. What can be redefined? What must be redesigned? Interaction design contributes to (re)designing the role of technology in perpetuating social and environmental justice and injustice, but also has much to learn from other disciplines. That’s why we’re inviting submissions from fields working with people, design, environment, and technology.
