MuC offers participants from science and industry a platform for contributions and discussions on innovative forms of interaction between people and digital technology, on human-centered development methods, interactive applications, and other topics in the field between users, teams and communities on the one hand and information and communication technologies used on the other hand. The aim of the conference is to discuss innovative research results, to promote the exchange of information between academia and practitioners, to stimulate research activities and training, and to sensitize science, practice, and the public to the relevance of human- and task-oriented technology design. *Important Dates* All deadlines are set to Anywhere on Earth (AoE). In contrast to previous years, the deadline will not be extended at a later point.

Workshops are a gathering place for attendees with shared interests to meet in the context of a focused and interactive discussion. Workshops are an opportunity to move a field forward and build community: a chance to find people who care about the same issues, questions, and research agendas as you. Workshops may address any topic relevant to the HCI community, e.g., questions of basic research and applied research, HCI practice, HCI education, new methodologies, emerging application areas, ethics, sustainability, or design innovations. Most workshops (half or full-day) take place on Sunday before the start of the technical program, but workshops can also be run on Monday or Tuesday. As Workshop Chairs, we will create a carefully curated list of workshops that reflects the needs and desires of the community. Please note that we might propose modifications and augmentations, such as suggesting that workshops be combined where appropriate. The workshop should address timely topics and phenomena; therefore, it depends on the year in which topics are considered particularly relevant and interesting. The space and technical limitations will also influence the number and form of the selected workshops. * Workshop Chairs * Yasmeen Abdrabou Mark Colley
