Thank you so much for serving various roles of CHI 2026! Your contribution is key to ensure high quality of the CHI 2026 program. We, as GCs and TPCs, would like to remind the community of the ACM code of conduct to ensure a high standard of review and publication process for CHI 2026.
Over the years, ACM has created, maintained and updated the ACM Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct known as “The Code”. It has become the global standard for evaluating ethical and professional conduct for the Computing community. In the past decades, different types of violations of the Code have been identified, including:
- Misrepresentation or falsification of research
- Plagiarism
- Simultaneous submissions
- Conflict of interest
- Peer reviewer misconduct
- Coercion and harassment-related misconduct
Various penalties have been, and will continue to be imposed upon the discovery of violations of the ACM Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct.
As the world’s premier conference of Human-Computer Interaction, integrity is part of our fundamental values. It is imperative that each of us conducts ourselves ethically, responsibly, and professionally, and we strongly hope no violations occur. We encourage you to thoroughly review the Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct to ensure awareness of any potential breaches and to avoid inadvertently participating in any violations. Let’s work together to create an excellent CHI 2026 program!
