Dagstuhl-Seminar — Societal Impact of Computational Social Choice

Dates	September 28-October 2, 2025
Location	Schloss Dagstuhl – Wadern, Germany
Organizer	Schloss Dagstuhl - Leibniz-Zentrum fur Informatik GmbH
Topics	Computer Science and IT
In this Dagstuhl Seminar, we want to focus on three main topics. The first one is data, which has become an essential element for COMSOC research. In fact, thanks to the availability of open libraries, datasets and tools, researchers can now implement and test their algorithms for collective decision-making on real-life data, complementing their theoretical results. The second one is participation, as in recent years many municipalities and public institutions have moved towards various forms of participatory and digital democracy, with the goal of increasing the citizens' active role and engagement in the public life of their communities. The third one is time, as although many collective decision-making problems have an underlying repeated nature, this dimension has thus far not received the deserved attention within standard COMSOC models.
