Workshop Description
With the advancement of digital technologies and gadgets, online content is easily accessible. At the same time, harmful content also gets spread. There are different harmful content available on different platforms in multiple languages. The topic of harmful content is broad and covers multiple research directions. But from the user’s aspect, they are affected by them all. Often, it is studied individually, like misinformation and hate speech. Research has been done on one platform, monolingual, on a particular issue. It leads to harmful content spreaders switching platforms and languages to reach the user base. Harmful is not limited to social media but also news media. Spreader shares harmful content in posts, news articles, comments, and hyperlinks. So, there is a need to study the harmful content by combining cross-platform, language, multimodal data and topics.
We will bring the research on harmful content under one umbrella so that research on different topics (hate speech, misinformation, disinformation, self-harm, offensive content, etc.) can bring some novel methods and recommendations for users, leveraging text analysis with image, audio, and video recognition to detect harmful content in diverse formats. The workshop will cover the ongoing issue of war or elections in 2025.
We believe this workshop will provide a unique opportunity for researchers and practitioners to exchange ideas, share latest developments, and collaborate on addressing the challenges associated with harmful contents spread across the Web. We expect that the workshop will generate insights and discussions that will help advance the field of societal artificial intelligence (AI) for the development of safer internet. In addition to attracting high quality research contributions to the workshop, one of the aims of the workshop is to mobilise the researchers working on the related areas to form a community.

As technology advances in different sub-domains of computing,
data-driven models are becoming increasingly important. The
data-dependent world now faces many challenges in terms of data accuracy
and data privacy. High-impact advancements include machine learning,
artificial intelligence, deep learning and many more. Data is growing
exponentially in terms of diversity and complexity. One organization or
industry processes over a few million transactions per hour and stores
hundreds of billions of data. We live in a world with a great need for
more efficient data analysis and processing. Data analytics can reveal
hidden patterns, complex relationships, internal information relations,
and even segmentation. Data applications have opened up new
possibilities in every aspect of our lives. Studying data and its
structure, dynamics, and modern data technologies is an ongoing process.
There is a great deal of literature and research on data management, but
it does not address the data processing needs. Many studies focus on
developing models and systems for analysing large datasets.
Data analysis leads to application domains that have a systematic impact
on decisions. The knowledge gained from the data analysis enables the
generation of critical information for multiple domains. In this
conference, we review and discuss the latest trends in data management,
the opportunities and challenges, and how they have affected
organizations' ability to develop effective business and technology
strategies and stay up-to-date in data technology. We also highlight
current open research directions in data analytics that need further
attention.
The proposed conference will discuss topics not limited to
Data applications in various domains and activities
Data in cloud
Real-world data processing
Data inaccuracy and reliability issues
Data Ecosystem
Business Analytics
New data analytics techniques
Physical and management challenges
