PDC Place Malaysia: Emerging Spaces for ICT4D and PD Communities

• Participatory Design (PD) has a focus on enabling communities to take charge of shaping their own future and as such is a relevant approach for ICT4development (ICT4D), which has been strongly rooted in Sarawak, Malaysia. Therefore, we are organising a three-day Malaysia PDC Place event to create awareness of PD practices and understanding among various sectors in Malaysia and Southeast Asia, not just academia and industry, but also government and the general public. We hope that increasing awareness, particularly among non-traditional "connoisseurs" of PD, such as the government, would aid in the development of more effective and efficient products and services that meet the needs of target groups. This engagement also contributes to the creation of opportunities for underserved communities, such as rural and indigenous communities.
