The “Mensch und Computer” (MuC) conference, launched in 2001, is the 
largest conference series on human-computer interaction in Europe. 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.

* Message from the Workshop Chairs *

We invite you to submit proposals for workshops at Mensch und Computer. 
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.
