WG 9.5 Our Digital Lives

CHAIRS

Hi, and thanks for visiting our website. This is the home of the Working Group (WG) on ‘Our Digital Lives’, that is part of Technical Committee 9 (TC9), on ICT and Society, of the International Federation of Information Processing (IFIP).

Hameed CHUGHTAI (Chair) and Kathrin BEDNAR (Vice-Chair)

AIMS

  • The IFIP WG 9.5 ‘Our Digital Lives’ views digital technologies at large as intertwined with everyday life. With digital technologies playing such a central role in our lives, the group aims to bring together academics, practitioners and policy makers interested in how the ‘digital’ influences our lives and society at large, what opportunities and challenges it presents, and how it can be managed. Through workshops, conferences, edited collections, and digital avenues, the group will provide a space for interdisciplinary dialogue and mutual exchange from a diverse set of disciplines (e.g. computing, information systems, media studies, social theory, philosophy, anthropology, psychology, organizational studies, gender studies, politics and ethics, among others) interested in different aspects of the ‘digital’.

SCOPE

The scope of the working group is around the ‘digital’ as evident in a multiplicity of empirical sites and social phenomena. Given its scope, we welcome contributors from, but not limited to, the following areas:

  • Social media and online communities
  • Digital platforms
  • Digital health

  • Digital labour
  • Digital tourism
