Participatory design is about the direct involvement of people in
the co-design of the technologies they use. Its central concern is
how collaborative design processes can be driven by the
participation of the people affected by the technology designed.
Embracing a diverse collection of principles and practices aimed at
making technologies, tools, environments, businesses, and social
institutions more responsive to human needs, the International
Handbook of Participatory Design is a state-of-the-art reference
handbook for the subject. The Handbook brings together a
multidisciplinary and international group of highly recognized and
experienced experts to present an authoritative overview of the
field and its history and discuss contributions and challenges of
the pivotal issues in participatory design, including heritage,
ethics, ethnography, methods, tools and techniques and community
involvement. The book also highlights three large-scale case
studies which show how participatory design has been used to bring
about outstanding changes in different organizations. The book
shows why participatory design is an important, highly relevant and
rewarding area for research and practice. It will be an invaluable
resource for students, researchers, scholars and professionals in
participatory design.
