ICSR + Art 2026 Seeks Volunteers

The 18th International Conference on Social Robotics (ICSR + Art 2026) will take place in London, UK, from 1-4 July 2026. ICSR is the leading international forum that brings together researchers, academics, and industry professionals from across disciplines to advance the field of social robotics. Hosted at the University of London, this year’s conference is seeking enthusiastic volunteers to help deliver a dynamic international event at the intersection of robotics, society, and the arts. Volunteering offers a valuable opportunity to gain hands-on experience in organizing a major academic conference, connect with global experts, artists, and innovators, attend selected sessions showcasing cutting-edge developments in social robotics, and build essential organizational, communication, and teamwork skills. Ideal for undergraduate and postgraduate students as well as motivated individuals interested in social robotics or related fields, volunteer responsibilities include supporting registration, assisting with session coordination, guiding attendees, helping with technical presentations and demonstrations, and contributing to general event logistics. In return, volunteers will receive free conference access, a certificate of participation, and exceptional networking opportunities with leading professionals in the field. Applications are open now, with priority given to reliable candidates available throughout the full conference period and comfortable working in an international environment. The deadline to apply is 31 May 2026, with successful applicants notified in early June, and early applications are strongly encouraged.
