Community informatics - the purpose of research and practice: an applied interpretation
Peter Day · University of Brighton Repository (University of Brighton) · 2011
This paper considers the purpose of community informatics and reflects critically on key questions relating to community informatics research and practice. The paper then proceeds by relating communications and, by association, community informatics to community development. This leads to a discussion to the relationship of community informatics with community voice and empowerment and how these can be supported through community learning. A model of community learning partnerships is presented before being applied to current community informatics research and practices in Kenya.
