The climate change topic raises various challenges that the HCI community has been addressing from multiple angles. In our view, these different angles have several points of contact and would benefit from finding synergies, and with this workshop, we aim to convene the CHI community to discuss how HCI can leverage its traditional skill sets and multidisciplinary influences to address climate change issues.
It will have a one-day hybrid format.
Participants are invited to send a short paper (min. 2 - max. 6 pages, references excluded) in the form of a research, reflection, pictorial, provocation, or design fiction using the ACM SIGCHI template via Easy Chair.
Submissions will be assessed by the workshop organizers based on their potential to spark interesting discussions.
Upon acceptance, participants will be asked to produce a card on a Miro board to allow participants to start reflecting upon each other's submissions, find connections, and thus create a close-knit workgroup before the workshop.
At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the workshop and at least one day of the conference and attend the workshop.
