ArabHCI is an initiative inaugurated in CHI'17 SIG Meeting that brought
together HCI researchers/practitioners from the Arab World with those who
are conducting/interested in research in this context. The goal was to
start a community that explores challenges and unique opportunities for
future research in Arab countries and with Arab participants. This workshop
focuses on one of the themes that derived our community discussions, the
extent to which participatory approaches in the Arab context are culturally
and methodologically challenged. We invite researchers/practitioners who
had success or failure stories designing “with” Arab communities to share
their experiences and learned lessons around applying participatory
approaches. The workshop will result in developing a research agenda
specific to HCI participatory methods in the Arab world. We suggest that
submissions cover the following:

* Give sufficient background information about your participants; i.e.
culture, traditions, recruitment, etc.
* Describe the design process including: the experienced cultural and
contextual challenges, any innovative methods used
* Explain how you approached these challenges, what worked for you (or not)
and any future recommendations

Submitted position papers must not exceed 4 pages in the CHI Extended
Abstract Format (https://chi2018.acm.org/chi-proceedings-format<https://
chi2018.acm.org/chi-proceedings-format/>
<https://chi2018.acm.org/chi-proceedings-format%3Chttps:/chi2018.acm.org/chi-proceedings-format/%3E>).
The submissions should be sent in PDF format to (arabhci at gmail.com<mailto:
arabhci at gmail.com <arabhci at gmail.com>>) and without the CHI copyright
statement on the first page. Position papers will be selected based on the
contribution to the workshop theme, quality of presentation, and potential
to stimulate discussion. Upon acceptance, at least one of the authors must
register for both the workshop and for at least one day of the main
conference.
