The University of Salford is delighted to host the European Regional Conference on the Social Implications of Computers in Developing Countries.  

Working Group 9.4 of the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) attracts ethnographers, anthropologists, technologists, ethicists, and engineers interested in the issues around Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and international development. The work of the group often targets countries on the OECD DAC list of official development assistance recipients, but we are also interested in other communities or groups that are marginalised or disadvantaged in their relationships with technologies.

We seek contributions disseminating new and unpublished research from across the full range of interests within the working group.

Call for Papers 

  • Submission 29th February 2020
  • Notification to authors 30th April
  • Deadline for Final Papers 30th May 2020
