Dear colleagues,
We cordially invite paper submissions for the ACM International
Conference on Information Technology for Social Good (GoodIT)
The technological advances over the last decades provide
opportunities humanity has never had before. Blockchain use to
increase food security and telemedicine to provide health services
to remote places or learning independently of time and location
via MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses) are only a few examples.
Over the last years, the rise of Artificial Intelligence solutions
affected literally all areas of human life and will continue to do
so for the foreseeable future.
For this special track, we invite papers that discuss the use of
innovative technologies for the greater good. Since managing all
these technological advances sustainably represents a very
important area of research, we specifically like to highlight the
special role of digital technology in making progress towards the
Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), outlined in the United
Nations' 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development
(
https://sdgs.un.org/goals). However, we also invite contributions
that go beyond the framework outlined in the SDGs. For example, by
addressing the often paradoxical tensions that arise when a new
approach solves some aspects of the sustainability crisis while
adversely affecting others.
The special track welcomes empirical, conceptual, and constructive
papers that address the use of digital technologies to achieve the
sustainable development goals. Topics of interest include, but are
not limited to:
* The role of digital technology in transforming organizations and
society to achieve the SDGs
* Barriers that hinder the adoption of digital technology in
developing countries
* Digital technology to support innovative endeavors in developing
countries
* Blockchain to enhance food security
* Artificial intelligence to forecast food consumption
* Innovative technologies in agriculture in developing countries
* Robust telemedicine for far remote places
* Training methods for IT curricula for non-technical
entrepreneurs
* Simple yet robust eLearning devices
