Conversation and talking to each other are a clear example of human 
activities that are above all interactive and social, which are 
challenged by hearing and visual impairments.

Our symposium provides a forum for researchers from various fields, such 
as human-computer interaction, computing, linguistics, phonetics, 
interpreting, speech therapy, social science and medical professionals 
with interested 3rd sector professionals, such as associations with 
target group users to discuss various related issues together.

Symposium consists of keynote talks, workshops and poster sessions. We 
invite papers relating to accessibility, multimodality and technological 
aids in communication with a focus on sensory impairments and their 
effect on communication.

Authors are invited to submit an abstract, up to 200 words, using 
EasyChair by 1st March 2013.

We will inform the authors when EasyChair is accessible for submissions.

Feel free to spread the word.
