Abstract

In an era where personalization technologies increasingly shape human decision-making, integrating sustainability and social good into user-adaptive systems has become an essential challenge. Building on recent advances in User Modeling, Personalization, and Adaptive Systems, this workshop aims to consolidate a research agenda focused on how personalization can support sustainable behaviors, ethical decision-making, inclusion, and positive societal impact. Personalized and adaptive systems influence users' choices across many contexts - health, mobility, education, media consumption, and more. Their role in shaping long-term behavioral change positions them as key technologies for supporting the UN Sustainable Development Goals and broader sustainability initiatives. This workshop provides an interdisciplinary venue to explore theoretical, methodological, and practical advances at the intersection of sustainability, personalization, and adaptive systems. Through presentations, discussions, and interactive sessions, the workshop aims to stimulate knowledge exchange and collaboration for developing sustainable personalized systems.
