[Michienzi Andrea]

=== GoodIt 2021 Call for Special Tracks proposals (deadline officially 
extended) ===

GoodIT 2021 will feature special tracks whose aim is to focus on a 
specific topic of interest for the overall scope of the conference.

###   Scope
We solicit proposals for special tracks to be held within the main 
conference. Tracks proposals should highlight current topics related to 
experiences with the design, implementation, deployment, and evaluation 
of IT technologies for the social good.

###   Publication
Papers submitted to each track must be based on original works and must 
not have been previously published. They have to be peer-reviewed by its 
own program committee (at least 3 reviews per submitted paper is 
required). The paper format must follow the one of the main conference 
(http://www.grc.upv.es/goodit2021/authors/). At least one of the 
authors' of all accepted papers must register and present the work at 
the conference. All accepted and presented papers will be included in 
the ACM Digital Library.

###   Track Proposal Format
A special track proposal must contain the following information:

- Title of the track
- The names of the organizers (indicatively, two) with affiliations, 
contact information, and a brief bio.
- A brief description of the scope and topics of the track (max 1/2 
page) and a brief explanation of: (1) why the topic is timely and 
important; (2) why the topic is related to the conference; (3) why the 
track may attract a significant number of submissions of good quality.
- Indication if a journal special issue is associated with the track
