AfriCHI 2025 – Egyptian Innovation Showcases
Africa Computer Human Interaction conference (AfriCHI) is planned to take place in Egypt during November 4-8, 2025. Local organisers wish to leverage this opportunity to showcase the best in practice, research and innovation in the fields of Computer Human Interaction and Usability taking place in Egypt. We would like to invite universities, higher education institutions, industry and research centres to showcase their best work, to be showcased at the conference main poster session, and engage with the conference's wider audience. This can include posters of research projects, industrial case studies, or practical demos. We are interested in showcasing innovative work coming from all over Egypt, particularly by students. We highly encourage submissions that showcase innovation from outside Cairo and Alexandria (e.g., Delta and Upper Egypt).
The following themes are encouraged, but suggestions for additional themes are most welcome.
Applicants are also encouraged to tie their work, if possible, to the conference theme as in “re-centering Egyptian wisdom in HCI”.
Participants are invited to submit abstracts, suggesting one of the categories above, of between 200-300 words by the advertised deadline, showing the names, full titles affiliations, and contact details of the proposer(s). The Organising Committee will respond by accepting the abstract as submitted or by suggesting a different category to the one suggested above. Registration at the conference by at least one of the proposers is required for all accepted contributions. Up to 10 projects will be selected and granted a free one-day ticket (for one person) to the conference and a discounted registration should they wish to attend the full conference program.
