The EAI DLI conference advances research in design, learning, and innovation (DLI) in relation to development and use of digital and emergent technology through the dissemination of research, and promotion of inclusive and playful discourses. It is gathering researchers from academia and practitioners from organisations and industry from around the world, who research, practice, and teach in the fields of education, interaction design, games, communication, social science, human-computer interaction, and other related disciplines. The EAI DLI conference is devoted to engaging and support participants at all stages of their career. Due to the diversity of the conference scope, we are happy to offer attendees a range of perspectives and experiences. Each EAI DLI conference is distinct, but it seeks to maintain its character and overall scope and values from year to year. A core value is to advance and inspire the field of DLI, which is done through the outstanding and excellent work being presented as well as through the exchange of ideas and collaborative work to understand as well as fostering the diversity of the discipline.
