The European Conference on Cognitive Ergonomics (ECCE)

Critical reflection for a better tomorrow

7–10 October 2025 Tallinn, Estonia

The European Conference on Cognitive Ergonomics (ECCE), established in 1982, is the premier annual conference of the European Association of Cognitive Ergonomics (EACE). It serves as a platform for researchers, practitioners, and academics to share advancements, ideas, and discussions in the fields of cognitive ergonomics and human-media interaction. ECCE is organized in cooperation with ACM SIGCHI.

For 2025, ECCE will take place in Tallinn, a city renowned for its innovation, advanced e-services, and commitment to forward-thinking digital public solutions, making it the perfect setting for this year’s theme: “Critical reflection for a better tomorrow.”

Our goal is to raise awareness of the role and contribution of cognitive ergonomics and related design-oriented fields in enabling the experiences of individuals, communities, and the whole society through the experiences we enable, facilitate or craft.

ECCE 2025 invites original work moving the fields of cognitive ergonomics and human-media interaction forward, be it through the advances of theory, methodology, or through practice.
