ETHICOMP Working Conference 2007
Yunnan University, Kunming , China
April 2-3, 2007
Call for Participation
The ETHICOMP name is synonymous with an international inclusive dialogue
concerning the ethical and social issues associated with the development and
application of Information and Communication Technology (ICT). Since 1995 there
have been conferences, workshops and reports under the ETHICOMP umbrella. All
have been organised by the Centre for Computing and Social Responsibility of De
Montfort University in the UK in collaboration with other universities around
the world.
The ETHICOMP Working Conference 2007 is a new venture designed to promote ICT
ethics and social impact activity in academia within regions of the world where
currently such activity is relatively limited. It is fitting that the first one
will be held at Yunnan University in China. The ETHICOMP Working Conferences
will include position papers, case studies, posters, tutorials, workshops and
demonstrations.
