Welcome to the mailing list for "Crafting Participatory Tech Futures"! 🎉
The first announcement about the "Crafting Participatory Tech Futures" workshop, celebrating its acceptance into the 2026 Fairness, Accountability and Transparency (FAccT) conference.
Over the coming weeks, we will share updates about an online library pointing to the many resources we are working with to design and deliver the "Crafting Participatory Tech Futures" workshop.
🧰 The workshop takes place in-person at the Fairness, Accountability and Transparency (FAccT) conference, held in Montreal, June 25-28.After the workshop, you will also be invited to contribute to the report describing the workshop's methodology and key findings. We are also exploring opportunities to run the workshop in London, UK, and warmly invite you to reach out if you also want to run a version of the workshop, whether in-person or online.
