** Call for Participation **

We are pleased to open the registration for the SAIL Spring School 2026, 
which will take place from 17–19 March 2026 at Paderborn University, 
Germany. Organized by the SAIL Research Network (Sustainable Life-cycle 
of Intelligent Socio-Technical Systems), the Spring School offers 
interdisciplinary perspectives on resilience and artificial 
intelligence, bringing together technical, theoretical, and 
socio-technical viewpoints. Over the course of three days, participants 
will gain insights into current research on knowledge-driven AI methods, 
explainability, and the role of AI in engineering robust and sustainable 
systems. A poster session and several social activities will provide 
further opportunities for exchange and networking. - Participation is 
free of charge, but due to limited capacity, registration is required. -
