About Participatory Design
Participatory Design (PD) is a set of
diverse ways of thinking, planning, and acting
through which people make their work,
technologies, and social institutions more
responsive to human needs. PD practitioners aim
to improve conditions of work and the quality of
life by involving workers, users, and community
members in design and development. PD enables
users, stakeholders, and other interested
parties to play powerful roles in shaping
technological and work outcomes to reflect
their interests. Through Participatory Design,
people around the world are accomplishing
significant achievements in collaboratively
shaping technology and social environments.
The Participatory Design Conference attracts
researchers, designers, practitioners, workers,
and managers. Participants share and learn about
advances in practices, methods, and theory
throughout the cycle of design. PDC 98 is an
international forum where diverse communities
can meet, exchange ideas and experiences, and
collaboratively invent the future of
participatory work.
PDC 98 pays special attention to the theme
of "broadening participation". In design,
organizations, and services, what challenges and
strategies exist for broadening involvement? The
program features papers, presentations,
workshops, and displays that address these
questions. Additionally, this year's conference
brings together leaders in multiple fields
employing participatory approaches to stimulate
exchange and to generate fresh ideas for future
practice and research.
