Mobilizing Senior Citizens in Co-Design of Mobile Technology

Abstract

This paper disseminates work from the European GiveT 2 Understanding how ad hoc or loosely coupled infrastructures can define a community rather than a formal, organisational structure; and 3 Understanding the nature of mobilization and motivation for participation as processes that continue, and need to be supported, also after completion of the project. These strategies have emerged in the authors' work on mobilization and service sharing, but may apply to a broader context of infrastructuring and ongoing negotiations.
