DIALOG FOR GOOD

Much of the work in such domains happens in government/international agencies (Departments of Social Welfare, UNESCO, UNHCR) or non-governmental organisations NGOs. Sharing of knowledge is often fragmented or local, making awareness of how services may be improved using SLT low compared to more connected commercial and industrial fields. Dialog for Good aims to be a focal point for work in this area. It will promote novel use cases, cutting edge research and technological developments in these domains, building awareness of the opportunities that SLT offers in these interaction contexts. The workshop will foster networking among spoken dialog researchers and service providers, leading to further initiatives to develop this highly interdisciplinary area of spoken dialog research.
