*** Covid-19 announcement ***

The HCOMP organisers are monitoring the ongoing situation around Covid-19 closely. We plan to hold the conference at the same dates, either online, or, if it‘s safe and the restrictions allow it, at the planned venue in the Netherlands. We aim to disclose further details in a few months. In the meantime, we’re looking forward to your submissions!

OVERVIEW
HCOMP workshops are a gathering place for people interested in human computation or crowdsourcing to meet in the context of a focused and interactive discussion. They are an opportunity to move the field forward and build community. Workshops might address basic or applied research, human computation or crowdsourcing in industry, new methodologies, emerging application areas, or other topics of interest. Workshop schedules should encourage lively debates and discussion. Each workshop should generate ideas that will give the HCOMP community a fresh way of thinking about the topic or that suggest promising directions for future work.

If you would like to organize a workshop, please reach out to hcompconference at gmail.com <mailto:hcompconference at gmail.com> by June 15 with a description of your proposed topic, intended audience, list of potential speakers, and a one-day or half-day schedule, including some time for contributed talks. Workshops are expected to be inclusive, and priority will be given to workshops that include a diversity of speakers, organizers, and viewpoints. Selected workshops will be held on October 26, the day before the main conference begins. Organizers also have the possibility to publish an overview article about their workshop (up to 10 pages, including abstracts of selected articles) to AI Magazine.
