Hello,
Wishing everyone a very happy new year.
We are organising a CHI workshop this year on *“Feminist voices about
ecological issues in HCI”.*
Please find the CFP below for your interest.
Even though issues such as climate change, pollution, and declining
biodiversity impact us all, people with historically disenfranchised and
socio-politically marginalized (HDSM) identities often bear the harsher
brunt of ecological crises and suffer disproportionately. Building upon and
braiding together two thriving Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) discourses
on feminism and environmental sustainability, we invite submissions from
researchers, designers, educators, and activists interested in the
intersection of feminist and ecological issues with a priority towards the
well-being of people with HDSM identities. Our online workshop has two
goals:
1. to provide a forum for contemporary feminist voices as agents of
change while engaging with various ecological issues, and
2. to critically engage with ecological issues through an intersectional
feminist orientation that prioritizes the well-being of people with HDSM
identities.
This *online* workshop will be scheduled into three parallel sessions
across three time zones, and a final reflective session. Submissions should
address and will be selected based on relevance to the following broad
workshop themes: feminist voices as agents of change addressing ecological
issues in HCI, intersectional approaches to research and practice, and
foregrounding the wellbeing of people with HDSM identities.
We welcome submissions in various formats, including video/audio recordings
(max 5 min) such as spoken word or other feminist oral traditions,
evocative visual artifacts such as collage, photography, graphic stories,
and illustrations, as well as position papers (max 6 pages) including a
brief bio of applicant(s).
Submissions should be sent to [log in to unmask] with the subject
"Feminist Ecologies CHI Workshop". Accepted papers and media will be
published to the workshop website. Please note that at least one author of
each accepted submission should attend the workshop and all participants
must register for both the workshop and for at least one day of the
conference.
*Deadline for submissions: February 25th 2022*
