Participatory Design Conference Call for Workshops
http://pdc2016.org
—————————————————————————
The 2016 Participatory design Conference invites proposals for workshops that engage with the conference theme of “PARTICIPATORY DESIGN IN AN ERA OF PARTICIPATION”. PDC Workshops are unique opportunities to propose ambitious and bold agendas for the PD community, crossing disciplinary boundaries and challenging the values, characteristics, politics and future forms of PD.
In line with the main tenets of our community, workshops should support an interactive format where active participation is encouraged and should go beyond a presentation format. In the past WS activities have, for example, included: collaborative mapping of a problem definition, debate and discussion groups, role playing, games and the creation of tangible outcomes (e.g. a fanzine). We encourage you to prepare proposals that will allow interested practitioners and researchers to spend half a day or a full day working together around shared interests.
The workshops will be held on the first day of the conference.
Submisions:
The proposal must be made following the SIGCHI Conference Proceedings Format (available at PDC website) and should include: 1) WS title and goals 2) an abstract that can be used for recruitment via the PDC website, 3) an explanation of the WS’s relevance to PD community and the conference 4) a description of the proposed format and schedule for the workshop (half day or full day) 5) a clear statement about the expected outcomes of the workshop (e.g. journal publication, research proposal, exhibition, etc.)
Please mention the maximum number of participants and explain how they will be recruited. In the recruitment procedure important dates should be clearly communicated to the participants (see important dates). Submissions should be maximum 2 pages long.

* 1st March 2016: Workshop proposals due; submission via PDC submission system
