The Diversity and Inclusion chairs will also work closely with the Accessibility chair to make sure that participation in the conference, and a safe, positive conference experience is available to everyone. To do so, we will be following and enforcing the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.acm.org\/special-interest-groups\/volunteer-resources\/officers-manual\/policy-against-discrimination-and-harassment\">ACM Policy against harassment<\/a>. This ACM policy supersedes any policy, supplemental guidelines or by-laws enacted or adopted by SIGCHI or this TEI 2021 conference concerning discrimination or harassment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Questions, concerns and suggestions can be directed at <a href=\"mailto:diversity@tei.acm.org\">diversity@tei.acm.org<\/a>, or to either chair individually. However, should you have a concern that you do not feel comfortable sharing with the Diversity and Inclusion chairs, you can also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.acm.org\/about-acm\/reporting-unacceptable-behavior\">report unacceptable behaviour to ACM directly<\/a>. Concerns about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.acm.org\/publications\/policies\/coercion-and-abuse\">ethical issues during the publication or reviewing process<\/a> can be directed to the <a href=\"mailto:publication-policies@hq.acm.org\">ACM Director of Publications<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Attending TEI<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We are all aware of the difficulty many researchers, academics, labs and universities face. Many of us had to cancel studies or even cannot access their labs. Moreover, we do not know how the travel situation is developing over the next few months. However, the current forced reinvention of the conference format has opened up possibilities for different forms of conference attendance, and we are looking forward to experimenting with hybrid forms of conference attendance where necessary.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are currently also working to offer substantial discounts to ACM Members from developing countries. If you are from a developing country and do not have an ACM membership yet, please review the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.acm.org\/membership\/special-member-rates-developing-countries\">special member rates<\/a> for academics from developing countries. Furthermore, we would like to direct your attention towards the <a href=\"https:\/\/sigchi.org\/conferences\/student-travel-grants\/gary-marsden-student-development-fund\/\">Gary Marsden Student Development Fund<\/a>, aimed at sponsoring SIGCHI student members who are from and currently based in developing countries to attend HCI relevant conferences, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/women.acm.org\/scholarships\/\">ACM Women in Computing scholarship<\/a>, which provides support for women undergraduate and graduate students in Computer Science and related programs to attend research Computer Science conferences.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Diversity &amp; Inclusion Paper Awards<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Like last year, we will be awarding the best papers that deal with diversity and inclusion. The Diversity and Inclusion chairs will select nominations from all accepted papers and pictorials.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Concerns about Accessibility?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Please have a look at the <a href=\"https:\/\/tei.acm.org\/2021\/accessibility-faq\/\">Accessibility FAQ<\/a> or contact Accessibility Chair Georg Regal at <a href=\"mailto:accessibility@tei.acm.org\">accessibility@tei.acm.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Diversity and Inclusion Chairs<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sara Nabil <\/strong>(she\/her) is an Assistant Professor at Queen&#8217;s University, Kingston, Canada.
