VCIP is committed to fostering an inclusive, respectful, and welcoming environment where everyone can freely share ideas, engage constructively, and build meaningful connections. Our mission is to provide a supportive platform that empowers researchers from diverse backgrounds to present their work, collaborate, and drive innovation without fear of discrimination or harassment. We uphold a zero-tolerance policy toward unacceptable behaviors such as discrimination, harassment, intimidation, or disrespect in any form. Every participant deserves an experience characterized by mutual respect and thoughtful, constructive dialogue. Should you witness or experience any concerning behaviors, or if you need support, please contact our Diversity and Inclusion Chairs (jhko@skku.edu, samira.afzal@aau.at).
