With a wide audience comes a heterogeneous blend of people, each differing in a variety of characteristics (such as age, ethnicity, or gender). At the same time, research in human-robot interaction (HRI) has largely considered homogeneous samples for examining consequences of and prerequisites for ethical HRI. This gap in diverse research findings is accompanied by a lack of comprehensive legal frameworks for interactions with autonomous and AI-enhanced agents, as well as methodological rifts for clustering and sampling diverse audiences for studies.</div> <div><br> </div> <div><font size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">This workshop attempts to get closer to closing these gaps by fostering an exchange between HRI professionals regarding a variety of topics, including: challenges in acquiring and reporting diverse samples, overcoming biases tied to WEIRD (Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, Democratic) samples and mitigating discrimination in both research and practice, aligning HRI with ethical guidelines like the ALTAI framework and EU AI Act, exploring privacy, autonomy, trust, and transparency issues and investigating power dynamics, emotional fidelity, and societal biases replicated through robot interactions. </span></font></div> <div id="x_divtagdefaultwrapper"><font face="Calibri,Helvetica,sans-serif,EmojiFont,Apple Color Emoji,Segoe UI Emoji,NotoColorEmoji,Segoe UI Symbol,Android Emoji,EmojiSymbols" size="3"><span id="x_divtagdefaultwrapper" style="font-size: 12pt;"> <div> <div><br> </div> <div> <div>The full-day workshop features keynote talks by industry experts and academic researchers, a presentation of paper submissions, a student methodology workshop, and a diversity panel designed to establish best practices for ethical and inclusive HRI research and practices. Attendees of all robotics-adjacent disciplines are invited to contribute to this workshop by submitting their work for presentation at the workshop (see call for papers for more details) and taking part in the interactive sessions. </div> <div><br> </div> </div> </div> <div>***************************</div> <div><br> </div> <div><br> </div> <div><u>Workshop organizers:</u></div> <div><br> </div> <div> <div>The Joint International Workshop on Ethics, Legality, Diversity, and Design in Human-Robot Interaction (E3D) is a collaboration of four workshops and research groups:</div> <div><br> </div> <div><font size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><b><i>Team divHRI: Researching Diversity and Inclusion in Human-Robot Interaction - Methodological, Technical and Ethical Considerations</i></b></span></font></div> <div><font size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><b><i><br> </i></b></span></font></div> <div> <ul style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"> <li>Lukas Erle - Ruhr West University of Applied Sciences, Germany; lukas.erle@hs-ruhrwest.de</li><li>André Helgert - Ruhr West University of Applied Sciences, Germany; andre.helgert@hs-ruhrwest.de</li><li>Carolin Straßmann - Ruhr West University of Applied Sciences, Germany; carolin.strassmann@hs-ruhrwest.de</li><li>Sabrina C.
