Abstract

Participatory design - the direct involvement of end-users and other stakeholders in design - has become a standard design paradigm in informatics, that is, in developing information systems, applications, infrastructures, and associated work practices. Community informatics, which addresses the impacts and utilisation of information technology to facilitate community life, is a challenging, but important domain for further developing participatory design.
