An important concern of the department "Computational Social Science" is to strengthen the interdisciplinary community for this field in Germany and Europe and to promote worldwide networking. International conferences, symposia and workshops are an important means to this end.
Most recently:
CHOC2023 – Conference on Harmful Online Communication
November 16–17, 2023 in Cologne
Among the events organized by GESIS in recent years were the 3rd International Conference on Computational Social Science (IC2S2 2017) and the 10th International AAAI Conference on Web and Social Media (ICWSM-16), the European Symposium Series on Societal Challenges in Computational Social Science, the Kick-Off Workshop International Research in Computational Social Science, and many others.
