The Computer - Human Interaction Special Interest Group (CHISIG) and The Ergonomics Society of Australia (ESA) are having a joint professional conference at The Hotel Sofitel in Melbourne from 25th - 27th November 2002. This Conference is Australia's leading forum for human-computer interaction, ergonomics and human factors. The HF2002 Conference this year incorporates both OZCHI and the Annual ESA Conference.

The Human Factors HF2002 Conference will focus on "design for the whole person" to highlight the integration of physical, cognitive and social aspects of design.

The Conference Program will feature a number of outstanding local and international speakers, concurrent sessions, poster presentations and site visits around the Melbourne area. Chris Johnson, a leading authority on human error and systems failure, based in the UK will be presenting a keynote address at the conference.

The Conference attracts researchers and practitioners from all around Australia and overseas - with a wide range of interests, from human factors and ergonomics to design and information technology - and provides a wonderful opportunity to meet and extend contacts.

The Organisers are currently accepting paper, poster, tutorial, workshop and video/multimedia submissions, the deadline for which is Friday 3rd May 2002. Many people have already expressed interest in the conference and will be receiving a registration brochure in May 2002.
