Call for Tutorial Proposals

Tutorials are a cornerstone of any thriving research community, offering a unique space where knowledge is not merely presented but actively shared, discussed, and built upon. The 23rd International Conference on Intelligent Environments (IE 2027) warmly invites researchers, practitioners, and innovators to propose tutorials that inspire, challenge, and expand the horizons of our community. Whether you are working on the theory, methods, tools, technologies, applications, or practical challenges of Intelligent Environments, we encourage you to share your expertise in an interactive and engaging format.

Tutorials represent an invaluable opportunity to connect with fellow researchers, spark new collaborations, and contribute to shaping the future directions of the field. Tutorials should be educational rather than promotional and should provide clear learning outcomes. Proposals that combine conceptual foundations with practical exercises, demonstrations, case studies, or hands-on activities are particularly encouraged. They may address established topics of broad relevance, emerging technologies, methodological approaches, software platforms, datasets, standards, or practical skills relevant to researchers, students, developers, industry professionals, and public-sector stakeholders.

We look forward to receiving your proposals and to building together a rich and diverse programme that reflects the breadth and depth of our community.
