EuroXR Conference – Ethics, Diversity, Inclusion, and Integrity Policy

The EuroXR Conference is committed to maintaining a high standard of professional conduct, ethical research practices, and inclusive participation. As a leading European forum for extended reality (XR) research and innovation, we actively foster a culture of respect, collaboration, and openness across our community.

1. Diversity and Inclusion

We believe that diversity drives innovation. The EuroXR Conference encourages participation from individuals of all backgrounds, regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, nationality, age, religion, disability, sexual orientation, or career stage. We are committed to fair and inclusive practices in all aspects of the conference, including speaker invitations, committee appointments, paper reviews, and attendee engagement.

We actively seek to include perspectives from underrepresented groups in XR and welcome international and interdisciplinary contributions.

2. Ethics and Scientific Integrity

All submissions and presentations at the EuroXR Conference are expected to uphold the highest standards of research integrity. This includes transparency in research methodology, responsible handling of data (especially when involving human participants), appropriate acknowledgment of funding sources and collaborators, and adherence to applicable ethical guidelines.

Authors and reviewers are expected to disclose any potential conflicts of interest and maintain confidentiality during the peer-review process.

3. Professional Conduct

EuroXR fosters a respectful and welcoming environment for all attendees. We value open exchange of ideas, constructive feedback, and professional dialogue. Discrimination, intimidation, or inappropriate behavior are not in line with our values and will be addressed appropriately. Participants are encouraged to report any concerns to the organizing committee, where they will be handled with confidentiality and care.

4. Accessibility and Inclusion

We are committed to making the EuroXR Conference as accessible as possible. This includes providing accessible venues, accommodating special needs where feasible, and supporting virtual participation for those unable to attend in person. We welcome suggestions from the community on how we can continue to improve accessibility and inclusion.
