Dear All,
I am sharing a Call for Participation for the upcoming CHI 2023 Workshop ‘Designing Technology and Policy Simultaneously’, knowing that some in this community are looking into how Designers, Policy-makers, and Experts from the field of Computer Human Interaction (CHI) may work together on these important issues.
If you are interested, please submit a short paper (details below). Please also help distribute this information to your colleagues and students who might also be interested. Check out the website (link below) or contact me if you have specific questions.
Many thanks, Sabine

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
Time and place: The workshop will take place on April 23, 2023 (Sun) and is open to both in-person (Hamburg, Germany) and remote participants.
Paper submission deadline: February 23, 2023
Call for participation: Accounting for technologies' unintended consequences---whether they are misinformation on social media or issues of sustainability, privacy, and fairness---increasingly requires HCI to consider technology design at a societal-level scale. At this scale, public and corporate policies play a critical role in shaping technologies and user behaviors. How can technology design and policies better inform and coordinate with each other in generating safe new technologies? What new solutions might emerge when HCI practitioners design technology and its policies simultaneously to account for its societal impacts? This one-day, hybrid workshop brings together HCI, design, and policy communities, academics, and practitioners to explore these questions.
Submissions may address one or both questions in a position paper (1-2 pages) or a short research paper (4-6 pages). The accepted workshop papers will be made available on the workshop website. Authors of the highest-rated submissions will be invited to give short talks with our invited speakers.
Submissions may focus on broad insights into the opportunities and open questions around designing tech and policy simultaneously. Submissions can also offer specific research or case studies. We especially encourage submissions related to society-level-scale technologies and HCI concerns where design+policy can be particularly valuable, including but not limited to:
Technologies
* Platform technologies, large language models, and text-to-image models
* Face recognition and other kinds of recognition
* Smart speakers, chatbots, and simulated social actors
* Deep Fakes, AI-generated texts and images
Domains and Concerns
* Social media, online discourse, and misinformation
* Smart and connected health
* AI for societal good (e.g., Environment and sustainability, poverty)
* Data privacy and access
* AI ethics, fairness, accountability
* Algorithmic Management: Working for the Bot
* Agent ownership
Designing Policy
* Using service design for policy making and policy implementation
* Rapid prototyping and A/B testing of nascent policies: what HCI brings to policy design
* Digital twins for policymaking
* How to plan and package HCI research to influence policy makers
* Related law and policy at local, state, or national level
* Related advocacy and research
