International Conference on Interactive Digital Storytelling 
ICIDS 2021
7-10 December 2021, Tallinn, Estonia
CALL FOR WORKSHOP PROPOSALS


Proposals for workshops are short papers (4 pages including references, in Springer LNCS format: http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-793341-0) that are not anonymized. Workshops may vary in length, from half a day to a full day, and may vary considerably in format. Interdisciplinary proposals are particularly encouraged. 

Successful proposals require at least one workshop organizer to register for ICIDS 2021 and to attend to run the workshop. Workshop attendees will also need to register for ICIDS 2021 in order to attend. 


Proposals should include: 
* A brief description of the workshop (maximum two pages), outlining: 
   * Format 
   * Goals 
   * Topic 
   * Expected outcomes 
* A proposed schedule and a short draft of the call for participation. 
* The names, affiliations, and email addresses of the proposed organizing committee. This committee should consist of two to four people recognized in the area. 
* The primary contact for the organizing committee. 
* If possible, a list of tentatively confirmed attendees. 
* A proposal for how the workshop might be run remotely/virtually if this is necessary due to the ongoing pandemic. 

Workshop proposals must be submitted via email to icids2021@ardin.online by 23 July 2021. Your email should outline any requirements that you have for running your workshop at the conference (e.g., requirements pertaining to space, physical/virtual setup, technology, etc.). The workshops will be held on December 7th 2021.
