Description
Technology and Social Action is a project to foster dialogue and collaboration between activists in social movements, voluntary and community organisations and technology designers. It is funded under the Designing for the 21st Century initiative of the Arts and Humanities Research Council and the Engineering and Physical Science Research Council.
We are committed to supporting networks exploring effective ways of designing and using technology to support social action, and of ensuring that technological innovation responds to social priorities.
The project is co-ordinating face-to-face meetings and on-line dialogues during 2005. These dialogues seek to identify key issues facing social actors using technology, and examine how designers can contribute.
