EAST-EI workshop, in line with the conference theme `Socially Responsible Affective Computing', aims to bring together leading researchers, engineers, and practitioners from academia, government, and industry to explore the complex challenges of explainable affective systems, focusing on human emotions, multimodal data, and the role of XAI in ensuring ethical and fair practices. Building robust, explainable affective systems and designing transparent, emotionally intelligent interactions are critical to fostering trust and ensuring compliance with ethical guidelines.
