Design Informatics Webinar - Neha Kumar

Institute for Design Informatics

<h1>To Care, and How We Get There</h1>Care shows up in many ways and forms in HCI research and practice, and increasingly so. Touching upon some of these wide-ranging manifestations of care work in HCI worlds, this talk will go on to consider what futures of care work might look like. We will proceed then to discuss learnings for futures of work more broadly, and how we might infuse these with care.<h2>Bio</h2>Neha Kumar is an Associate Professor at Georgia Tech, working at the intersection of human-centered computing and global development.
