<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">
Why Participation for Development?</span></h3>
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-AU">With the title ‘Participation for
Development’, we aim at opining up for a discussion on the premises of both
Participatory Design and ICT4D. What is participation? How does it look like in
different contexts? What is the rationale behind involving participation? What
is development? Designing with underprivileged communities challenge the
assumptions around the objective of participatory design processes. Technology
is but a means in this context. What is at stake is the where to and how of the
development of livelihood. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-AU">Development is often understood as
bringing underprivileged communities up to the living standard of the high
income countries. Development researchers have however for decades argued that
the Western development trajectory is not a sustainable and desirable one. Not
only the goals of development in underprivileged communities, but also life
standards and technology development in and for the privileged countries are up
for discussion. However, not introducing technology will not improve the
situation either: </span><span lang="EN-ZA">The
fast technology advances leave more and more people without access to
technologies excluded from the digital connected global world (Heeks, 2009).
This includes imbalances in physical access to technology as well as the
resources and skills needed to effectively participate as a digital citizen
(Mechal & Searle, 2010:44). </span><span lang="EN-AU"> </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-AU">‘Participation for
Development’ points to a much-needed discussion in the so-called developed
countries as well. The development in the currently low and middle income
countries might point to alternatives that are valid in the high income
countries as well, if the now as problematic recognised aspects of the
privileged societies can be avoided. Understanding development as human
development brings in unifying theories like the Capability Approach (Sen 1999)
that can be applied similarly in countries of any level of income.</span><span lang="EN-ZA">It is then important to approach the
co-design sessions as that of socially embedded action rather than transfer and
diffusion, i.e. to acknowledge that something that already works somewhere
cannot necessarily be transferred to work in the same way elsewhere (Avgerou,
2010).</span></span><br />

<h3>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">
Why at the Participatory Design Conference?</span></h3>
<h2>
</h2>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-ZA">Participatory design in resource-restricted contexts
is more complex because the users of the envisaged technology solution may have
limited access to technology as well as to the design process. Careful planning
is necessary to adapt the design methods and design probes to ensure active
participation by all. </span><span lang="EN-AU">Winschiers-Theophilus
(2006) indicated that not only the result of design needs to be considered,
taking the different cultural context into account; also the design process and
the tools and methods need to be designed and adapted to fit to different
cultural contexts. Furthermore, the gap between current technologies and the
usage of ICT is often much wider than in e.g. in Scandinavian countries with a
rather equal, highly educated and technology savvy population. This in turn
requires the development of more comprehensive socio-technical prototypes,
(Gonsalves et al. 2011) </span><span lang="EN-ZA">addressing
not only the interfaces of the intended beneficaries but also the wider
organisational context and socio-technical infrastructures, addressing issues
like connectivity, economic sustainability, training possibilities, policies
and legal regulation. </span><span lang="EN-AU">Sustainability
and capacity development needs to be thought into the development from the very
beginning.</span></span></div>

</style><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-AU">Information and Communication Technology
(ICT) is more and more promoted as a driver and facilitator of economic growth
and development in low and middle income countries. ICT for Development (ICT4D)
though has mixed successes. Sustainability of solutions and usability
respectively usefulness for the intended beneficiaries have been reported as
causes. Participatory approaches to development have been proposed to address
these causes. Participatory Design (PD) seems like a perfect fit. However, at
the Participatory Design Conferences, research that addresses PD in low and
middle income countries is rare. The workshop aims at bringing together the PD
researchers working with under-privileged communities and attracting
researchers from the ICT4D communities to the PD conference. The goal is to
share experiences and start a discussion on how participation, ICT and
development might relate.</span></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-AU">The workshop is meant to be a discussion forum
for researchers working with participatory approaches in the context of ICT4D.
We aim at bringing together researchers working with participatory design in
ICT4D projects and compare experiences with Participation for Development.
During the workshop, we plan to discuss how to promote the discussion on
‘Participation for Development’ in connection with the PD community and
conference. This could e.g. be in form of a special issue for one of the
relevant journals or an edited volume. </span></span></span><br />
