Abstract

This half-day workshop examines how Social Informatics (SI) and Participatory Design (PD) focus on similar topics. The workshop is designed to discover ways that these two research areas might better inform one another by exploring and sharing theories, experiences, methods, literature, and emerging work. Equally important is to develop relationships between emerging scholars in PD and SI for future collective academic endeavors.
