ACM FAccT 2027 — Conference on Fairness, Accountability, and Transparency

ACM FAccT 2027, the tenth annual ACM Conference on Fairness, Accountability, and Transparency, takes place 21-24 June 2027 in Porto, Portugal. FAccT is a computer science conference with a deliberately cross-disciplinary focus, bringing together researchers and practitioners working on fairness, accountability and transparency in socio-technical systems — algorithmic, critical, human-centered, legal, philosophical, sociological, statistical and theoretical work all appear on the same programme. The 2027 call for papers organises submissions into six areas: evaluations and evaluation practices; experiences and interactions; law and policy; normative foundations and implications; power and practice; and system development and deployment. Authors choose between archival submissions, which appear in the ACM Digital Library, and non-archival submissions, which appear only as abstracts in the proceedings. The review timeline is published in full, running from abstracts in October 2026 to final decisions in March 2027.

• ✓Academic researchers

Anyone accountable for an AI risk, assurance or compliance programme is currently writing policy against a literature they did not read. FAccT is where that literature is argued, and the law-and-policy track means regulators, academics and practitioners are debating the same enforcement questions in one room rather than three. A Chief AI Officer or head of governance leaves with a defensible view of which evaluation methods actually hold up, which fairness claims vendors can and cannot support, and where the next wave of regulatory expectation is forming — a year before it lands in an audit.

• ✓Track: Evaluations and evaluation practices
• ✓Track: Experiences and interactions
• ✓Track: Law and policy
• ✓Track: Normative foundations and implications
• ✓Track: Power and practice
• ✓Track: System development and deployment
• ✓Archival and non-archival submission paths, the archival papers appearing in the ACM Digital Library

• ★The tenth edition of the venue that effectively defined the field — FAccT is where the fairness, accountability and transparency literature enterprises now cite in AI risk frameworks is actually peer-reviewed
• ★Explicitly cross-disciplinary: legal, philosophical, sociological and statistical submissions are reviewed alongside algorithmic ones, so the law-and-policy track sits next to the engineering track rather than in a separate event
• ★Authors can submit non-archival work, which brings practitioners and policy people who cannot publish in the ACM Digital Library into the programme
• ★The full submission-to-decision timeline is public a year ahead, from 27 October 2026 abstracts through final decisions on 23 March 2027
