The objective of this two day workshop is to bring together researchers from both universities and industry to consider different methods of achieving robustness in conversational interaction.

The workshop is aimed at robustness against all effects, which are known to degrade the performance of each individual component of a conversational interaction system .

In addition to regular technical sessions, the workshop will include invited plenary talks on topics of related general interest. The workshop will be divided into four sessions during the two days and will conclude with a panel discussion.
