We thank everyone who submitted their papers to this year's ACM Web Science Conference. While the paper submission deadline has passed, it is still time to submit proposals for workshops or tutorials, to be held on site in Barcelona or online. The deadline for workshop and tutorial proposals has been extended to February 28 (23:59 anywhere on earth).

CALL FOR WORKSHOPS AND TUTORIALS

----------------------------------

The 14th ACM Web Science Conference (WebSci'22) is soliciting proposals for workshops and tutorials that address the way Web Science research can illuminate key contemporary issues and global challenges. Workshops should reflect the inter- and multidisciplinary nature of Web Science. Tutorials could cover a wide variety of Web Science approaches and methods, including but not limited to techniques for data collection, processing, analysis, as well as substantive interpretation, best practices, and ethics. Examples of potential WebSci workshop areas include but are not limited to:

* Misinformation and propaganda on the Web

* Online health and wellness (especially concerning the COVID-19 pandemic)

* Online mental health

* The interplay between AI and the Web

* Using Web Science for social good

* Collective intelligence, crowdsourcing

* Bias on the Web

* Data ethics and algorithmic accountability

* Digital inequalities: access, quality, and participation

* Information privacy and cybersecurity

* Learning and education on the Web

* Social connections and social influence on the Web

* Social inclusion and exclusion on the Web

* Internet politics and political participation

* Internet, Globalization and Cultural Identities

* The evolution of social media services

* The future of the Web

* Cybercrime and safety

* Digital Humanitarianism

* ICT for development

* Climate Change and digital carbon footprints

* Paid and unpaid work, the gig economy

* Aging and generations (different practices and attitudes towards the Web)

* Global south and globalization

* Gender and sexualities (the Web as safe/unsafe space, space for mobilization)

Workshops and tutorials can be either on-site or fully online. A “call for papers/contributions” is optional. Workshops/tutorials with alternative interactive modes such as e.g. round table discussions or design/co-creation sessions can also be proposed. You can propose a program committee (PC) with content experts for your event.

When accepted, make sure your event is held in a timezone amenable to the participants. Each workshop or tutorial should have a web address containing all information about the venue, call for contributions, deadlines, modality, language etc. Workshops and tutorials can be held in any language.

Workshop organizers are free to publish workshop proceedings. WebSci22 offers the possibility to include workshop papers as a companion collection of the ACM WebSci22 proceedings.
