ICTD 2019 Jan 4-7, Ahmedabad, India ***Call for Participation***
Open Sessions, Doctoral Consortium, Demos, & Pre-Published Papers The international conference on Information and Communication Technologies and Development (ICTD) is organized every 12-18 months, and brings together researchers and practitioners working across domains, sectors, and disciplines to study the role of ICT in social, political, and economic development. First organized at the University of California Berkeley, USA, in 2006, the tenth ICTD is scheduled to be held at the Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad, India, from January 4th to 7th, 2019. At the tenth ICTD, or ICTD X at IIM Ahmedabad, the conference’s focus is on growing our community to welcome researchers from related disciplines and practitioners, and supporting young researchers of ICTD as they pursue their research trajectories. Join us via any of the following tracks below: OPEN SESSIONS Open Sessions will welcome a variety of submissions and formats. Submissions can include proposals for events such as panels, workshops, design jams, and more, ideally fostering dialog and participation from researchers and practitioners. The call for participation is here: http://ictdx.org/open-sessions/ DOCTORAL CONSORTIUM We invite Ph.D. students to present their research before fellow doctoral students and experts, with the hope that this will support exchange of ideas, solicit constructive feedback from experts, develop mentor-mentee relationships, and expand collaborative research networks. The DC is an excellent opportunity for young scholars to learn about the richly diverse ICTD community as they develop their dissertation research. The call is here: http://ictdx.org/doctoral-consortium/ DEMOS We invite participants to present ongoing projects, including researchers with significant field components, practitioners seeking community feedback, or developers with early stage prototypes. Demos should offer insights to real-world problems and/or solutions, and can include hardware, software, or physical artifacts. The call for participation is here: http://ictdx.org/demos/ PRE-PUBLISHED PAPERS We invite papers accepted for publication at other venues over the preceding year and a half (from Jan. 1, 2017 through July 15, 2018), so that ICTD attendees can benefit from conversations happening outside the conference.
