摘要
This panel is an extension of a one-day workshop on the same topic. We aim to inspire conversation on how existing asymmetries between former colonised and colonising peoples, affect technology design. With a focus on African technology design, this panel will discuss definitions, implications and experiences that emerge from neo-colonisation, decolonisation and post-colonisation, and how these affect HCI research and design in Africa today. This panel will provide an additional forum for sharing experiences about the uneven socio-economic, political or onto-epistemic relations in technology design and provide alternatives that respond to these.
