*TLDR**
**=====*

AASG 2024 focuses on the role of autonomous agents and multi-agent 
systems (MAS) in social challenges, such as public health, 
sustainability, climate change and conservation, and human rights. The 
goal is to identify new MAS problems in societies, develop novel MAS 
solutions to resolve social challenges, and learn from the real-world 
deployment of MAS.


*IMPORTANT DATES**
**================*

*Submission deadline: **March 8, 2024, AoE*
Author notification: March 18, 2024
Workshop tentative date: May 6 - 7, 2024


*ABOUT AASG 2024**
**================*

We solicit papers (work-in-progress, or published works with interesting 
novelty) in two categories:

1. *Research papers* describing novel contributions in resolving social 
challenges using multi-agent systems. Both work-in-progress and recently 
published work will be considered. Submissions describing recently 
published work should clearly indicate the earlier venue and provide a 
link to the published paper. Papers in this category should be at most 
*8 pages* (in AAMAS format), with any number of additional pages 
containing bibliographic references only.

2. *Position papers* describing open problems or neglected perspectives 
on the field, proposing ideas for bringing MAS methods into a new 
application area, or summarizing the focus areas of a group working on 
MAS for social good. Papers in this category should be at most *4 
pages*, with any number of additional pages containing bibliographic 
references only.

The submitted papers will be assessed based on their novelty, technical 
quality, potential impact, and clarity of writing. *Collaboration with 
NGOs and society stakeholders that have first-hand knowledge of the 
topic will be especially appreciated.*

This workshop has no archival proceedings, and the accepted papers are 
allowed to be submitted to other conference venues. Accepted submissions 
will have the option of being posted online on the workshop website. For 
authors who do not wish their papers to be posted online, please inform 
the organizers. Accepted papers will be presented either as a research 
talk or a poster. We also welcome papers accepted at other venues to 
facilitate discussion.
