Introduction

With the development and spread of AI techniques, ensuring the adherence of AI's behavior to legal and ethical principles has become a major subject. General fear of the unintended effects of AI systems, by its actions and its use of personal data, has led to a strong demand for trustworthy AI. This is a central concern that has become prominent both in public opinion and policy maker's agenda. The EU High-Level Expert Group on AI, convened by the European Commission in 2018, published a report on "Ethics Guidelines for Trustworthy AI" says that AI systems should be:
* lawful, complying with all applicable laws and regulations
* ethical, ensuring adherence to ethical principles and values

To achieve "TrustWorthy AI", there is a need to develop software systems that reason about human values and legal/ethical norms, implement these values through legal/ethical norms, and ensure the alignment of behaviour with those values and legal/ethical norms.

This workshop focuses on human values and compliance mechanism of legal/ethical norms. We set up two tracks in the workshop:
* Value Engineering and Value-Aware AI (VALE track)
* AI Compliance Mechanisms for Legal/Ethical Norms (AICOM track)

Authors should access to a track page to which they would like to submit their papers and follow instructions.
