Following the highly successful ‘User Centered Design for International Development’ workshop at CHI2007,
this workshop continues to explore challenges in applying, extending and inventing appropriate methods and contributions of Human Computer Interaction (HCI) to International Economic and Community Development. We address issues of interaction design for parts of the world that are often marginalized by the
Global North as well as areas in the Global North that are similarly marginalized by poverty or other barriers.

We will continue to extend the boundaries of Human Computer Interaction (HCI) via discussion on how existing methods and practices can be adapted and modified, and how new practices can be developed, to deal with these unique challenges.
