Conference Venue Accessibility
The conference venue consists of two locations which are across the street from each other. “Alte Fleiwa”, which will hosts the workshops and the conference dinner is wheel-chair accessible. The OFFIS main building is wheel-chair accessible as well. We will further provide a quiet room to retreat to. If you have any other need or inquiry, please contact us at local2017(Replace this parenthesis with the @ sign)auto-ui.org and we will try to accomodate you as best as we can.
We will add accessibility plans later on …
Open Statement
The open exchange of ideas and the freedom of thought and expression are central to the aims and goals of the AutomotiveUI 2017 conference. The organizers of AutomotiveUI 2017, aim and commit to providing a harassment-free, accessible, and pleasant conference experience with equity in rights for all. We want every participant to feel welcome, included, and safe at the conference. Moreover, we will do our best to accommodate specific needs such as accessibility, or dietary requirements. We cannot promise to solve every issue, but will try our best.
We aim to provide a safe, respectful, and harassment-free conference environment for everyone involved regardless of age, sex, gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, (dis)ability, physical appearance, race, ethnicity, nationality, marital status, military status, veteran status, religious beliefs, dietary requirements, childbirth- and pregnancy-related medical conditions or childcare requirements. We also respect any other status protected by laws of the country in which the conference or program is being held.
We do not tolerate harassment of conference participants. Harassment includes but is not limited to overt and/or covert acts of:
* Verbal accusations or bullying
* Deliberate intimidation, stalking, or following both in person and online
* Harassing photography or recording
* Sustained disruption of talks or other events
* Interference with a person’s participation or opportunity for participation
* Inappropriate physical contact
* Unwelcome sexual attention
* Advocating for, or encouraging, any of the above behaviour
We expect all interactions between AutomotiveUI 2017 members to be respectful and constructive, including interactions during the review process, at the conference itself, and on social media. Conference participants violating these rules may be sanctioned or expelled from the conference (without a refund) at the discretion of the conference organizers. A response that the participant was “just joking,” or “teasing,” or being “playful,” will not be accepted.
Anyone witnessing or subject to unacceptable behavior should notify individual members of the AutomotiveUI 2017 organizing committee.
General Chair AutomotiveUI 2017,
Susanne Boll
