C&T 2017 – Technology for the Common Good
26-30 June 2017, Université de Technologie de Troyes (UTT), France
http://comtech.community/


== NEWS

* Keynote and accepted papers (long, short, and case studies) announced
* Early-bird registration extended to May 11
* Doctoral consortium applications due June 2
* Several workshops still have open deadlines


== ABOUT C&T

The biennial Communities and Technologies (C&T) conference is the premier
international forum for stimulating scholarly debate and disseminating
research on the complex connections between communities – both physical and
virtual – and information and communication technologies.

C&T 2017 welcomes participation from researchers, designers, educators,
industry, and students from the many disciplines and perspectives bearing
on the interaction between community and technology, including
architecture, arts, business, design, economics, education, engineering,
ergonomics, informatics, information technology, geography, health,
humanities, law, media and communication studies, and social sciences. For
the 2017 round of C&T, we welcome contributions that particularly pay
attention on technology that can be deployed for the common good.

The conference program includes competitively selected, peer-reviewed
papers and case studies, as well as pre-conference workshops, a doctoral
consortium, and invited keynotes.

We look forward to welcoming you to an exciting conference in Troyes!

== KEYNOTE

Three Challenges for Politics and Technology Development: Organizational
Complexity, Virtuality, and Design Values

Lance Bennett & Alan Borning

The democratic process is in chaos in many nations. What role has
technology played in this to date, and what are realistic goals for the
role of technology in the future? How can we best design and develop
technologies to support democratic process with participation from
community members? How can we learn from deployments and help communities
adapt to actual uses and results? These elements of the talk will be
illustrated with examples from different community projects we have done
together, including a crowd sourced voter deliberation platform, a virtual
assembly site for Occupy Wall Street, and a planned international thought
network to address related problems of economy, environment, and democracy.

== DOCTORAL CONSORTIUM

The Doctoral Consortium is scheduled prior to the main conference
programme, on Monday, June 26, 2017. The Doctoral Consortium (DC) offers
research students a special forum where they can present, discuss and
progress their research plans with peers and established senior researchers.

We especially welcome contributions which are related to the overall C&T
conference theme, which is devoted to technology that can be deployed for
the common good. This encompasses questions and approaches which are
concerned with securing healthy and diverse ways of societal development.
However, all contributions falling in the scope of the C&T conference are
welcome.

Research students wishing to attend the doctoral consortium should submit
up to 4 pages, using the ACM templates, addressing the following:

* Introduction setting up your research area and specific research
question(s)/goals(s) (including key related work);
* Overall research approach, methodology, and expected contributions;
* Work in progress (including findings to date and next steps);
* Questions and issues for discussion, and what you hope to gain from
attending the DC;
* Short bio.

Please send proposals directly to the Doctoral Consortium Chairs by June 2:
dc at comtech.community
