—---------------------------------
*Goal and format*

The goal of the J4RE!+PwM3 workshop is to explore the role of *Requirements
Engineering (RE) in ensuring just software development*. This workshop will
unfold in three parts: (i) J4RE!+PwM3 will facilitate the presentation
and *discussion
of relevant works* addressing the topic of Justice in Requirements
Engineering. (ii) Second, a *participatory session* will follow up with a
brainstorming and first outline of a group authored article on the topic,
and (iii) third, a *Playing with Meanings (PwM) session* will wrap up the
workshop, wherein together we will introspect on the concept of justice
through ontology-based group modelling games, exploring both established
and experimental game and play activities for participatory sensemaking,
and discussing their potential value as tools for participatory practices
towards Justice for Requirements Engineering.

*Topics of interest:*

- Justice in Requirements Engineering
- Participatory processes and Requirements Engineering
- Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in Requirements Engineering practices
- Requirements Engineering and responsible design
- Ontic justice in Requirements Engineering
- Game & Play in Requirements Engineering

We welcome submissions around the topics of Justice in Requirements
Engineering, including but not limited to:

*Procedural Justice*: e.g. fairness, and ensuring democratic inclusion in
decision-making for RE practices and outcomes
*Distributional/Distributive Justice*: e.g. working towards equitable
access to information and opportunities provided by software systems
*Recognition Justice*: e.g. recognition of identities in RE processes, e.g.
beneficiaries and oppressed, subaltern, and other species
*Epistemic Justice*: e.g. acknowledging and including a plurality of forms
and sources of knowledge in RE practices and decision-making
*Ontic Justice*: e.g. fair representation and attention to inclusion and
exclusion criteria in knowledge systems, such as conceptual models and
ontologies
*Restorative Justice*: e.g. working to alleviate issues of injustice in
software systems development and outcomes
*Transformative Justice*: RE that directly aims to address structural
inequalities and transform an unjust status quo

*Submission types:*

*Short papers*: 5-9 pages including references
*Full papers*: 10-14 pages including references

Submissions must follow the one-column CEUR template.
