About the research

Abstract

As HCI Across Borders aspires to celebrate its fifth year at CHI, and the CHI 2020 venue of Hawaii signifies a coming together of four continents, the goal of the 2020 symposium is to bring our focus to themes that unify and foster solidarity across borders. Thus we select the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals as our object of study. Many communities within CHI focus on the constrained and ephemeral nature of resources, including the HCI for Development, Sustainable HCI, and Crisis Informatics communities, among several others. We contend that it is time for these communities to come together in addressing issues of global relevance and impact, and for many more to care. Additionally, as the venue for CHI shifts to Asia in 2021, we aspire to prepare the conference and its participants to grapple with themes that might offer a different and novel perspective when engaged within the Global South.
