---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Mohammad Rashidujjaman Rifat rifat@cs.toronto.edu Date: Sat, Dec 18, 2021 at 5:18 PM Subject: CFP: CHI 2022 workshop on "Integrating Religion, Faith, and Spirituality in HCI" To: chi-Announcements@acm.org Cc: Ishtiaque Ahmed ishtiaque@cs.toronto.edu

Dear Colleagues,

We are a group of HCI researchers interested in faith, religion, and spirituality, and their various connections to and implications for computing, design, and modern life. To advance this scholarship in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), we are organizing a workshop titled “integrating faith, religion, and spirituality in HCI” at the ACM CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI 2022). We invite you to participate in this workshop by submitting your position papers. We are accepting papers in the following three themes:

-

Secularization and Computing: How secularization in computing marginalizes, misfits, or conflicts with faith-based values? -

Designing for Faith-based Communities: How can HCI design address the unique needs and values of faith-based communities? -

Integrating Faith/Spirituality in HCI Domains: How can scholarship and practice in HCI benefit through the integration of faith, religion, and spirituality?

The first submission deadline is on January 24, 2022, and the second deadline is on March 7, 2022. We will invite a set of papers from the first round to be submitted to an upcoming special issue of ACM Interactions that we are going to guest-edit.

We will host a virtual event on April 13, 2022. If CHI 2022 happens in person, we will also hold an in-person event on April 30, 2022.

We look forward to your fantastic work!
