19TH UK ACADEMY OF INFORMATION SYSTEMS CONFERENCE, 2014, OXFORD, UK, 7-9th April

THEME: USING INFORMATION SYSTEMS TO MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE: FROM IDEALS TO ACTION Keynote Speaker: Professor Geoff Walsham

The exhortation to bend more scholarly effort in the IS field to improving the lot of the less privileged and underserved is not new. But the translation of “lofty ideals” into “actionable proposals” is still more honoured in the breach than the observance. So much of our research and teaching continues to be geared to the interests of commercial enterprises, rather than serving humanistic goals of freedom and emancipation.

The theme of this year’s conference is a natural continuance of that of 2013, “Social Information Systems” which called for a broadening of IS research to embrace more of the social sphere: health, social care, public services and community development.

As well as contributions focused on the Conference theme, papers addressing any aspect of the IS field are also invited.
