Technology and Social Action
E-commerce, E-health, E-government and E-learning are all well established domains for design. But life is more than commerce, government and family. The ‘third sector’, ‘civil society’, ‘the voluntary and community sector’, ‘un-coerced collective action around shared interests’, in short social action - is an equally important area of life that has received too little attention in the design of information and communications technology (ICT). Our purpose is not just to understand this dimension of the world, but to change it. The cluster brought together designers, researchers and practitioners to map out the issues, challenges and questions; to identify and understand important innovations, and to initiate different futures.
