For the GOR conference 2026 we are looking for workshop proposals. GOR workshops take place on the day before the conference’s talks and presentations and are a great opportunity for conference attendees to learn about state of the art methods and applications in online research.

The GOR workshops aim at getting a hands-on experience with the latest tools (e.g., software or hardware), methods (e.g., data collection or analyses), and best practice (e.g., how to take advantage of recent developments).

The following topics are relevant for the GOR audience: online and mobile web surveys, online market research, public opinion research, political research, data science, big data, smart data, online communication, and AI-based solutions for online research. Please note that the workshops are not the right place for plain sales presentations (although workshops on commercial solutions are possible). 

This year’s workshops will take place on 25 February 2026 (in person at the GESIS, Unter Sachsenhausen 6-8, 50667 Köln, Germany). Workshop duration should be 2 hours and language of instruction preferably English but German is possible for some workshops. As a token of appreciation, the conference fee for instructors will be waived. Furthermore, teaching a workshop at GOR is a great opportunity to get in touch with a relevant audience.

The complete Call for Submissions will be pubished early september.
