Call for Student Volunteers 

IndiaHCI conferences are one of the best events to experience being a Student Volunteer. Highly motivated, enthusiastic and talented individuals come together to join IndiaHCI conferences as Student Volunteers, or SVs. Each student volunteers participates in organizing the conference from end-to-end. They coordinate, interact and work together as teams and as individuals. They get a chance to interact closely with keynotes, chairs and organizers and with fellow community members including students.  

IndiaHCI 2020, unlike its predecessors, is a complete ONLINE event. Roles are getting redefined and challenges are new. Being a student volunteer during IndiaHCI2020 offers new and unprecedented opportunities to learn the secret of the trait and to grow as individuals. Not to mention that friendships and a long-lasting network of professionals are some of the many added advantages.
