Cfp 4S/EASST - Open panel: Exploring Empowerment in the Co-Creation of Innovation
Dear everyone, <br> <br>Please consider submitting an abstract for the open panel 61 - Exploring <br>Empowerment in the Co-creation of Innovation @ 4S/EASST, August 18-21, <br>Prague. <br> <br>DEADLINE is tomorrow, 29 February! <br> <br>61. Exploring Empowerment in the Co-creation of Innovation <br>Co-creation continues to be a powerful way to frame practices of technology <br>development and governance. On its own terms, it transforms passive recipients <br>into active co-creators, lending a participative hue to innovation imperatives <br>that otherwise urge disruption and scale-up. And amongst design, business and <br>policy practitioners, co-creation provides a usefully ambiguous framework with <br>which to guide the design and deployment of experiments, interventions and <br>instruments in domains as diverse as energy production, health care and <br>agriculture. <br>The promise of co-creation is the empowerment of those usually excluded from <br>processes of knowledge production. Advocates claim it affords more meaningful <br>and material participation where the inputs of a diversity of stakeholders are <br>taken on an equal-footing. Yet what exactly empowerment is in co-creation <br>remains unclear, and this lack of clarity has implications for the extent to <br>which co-creation will be adopted by influential actors such as policy-makers <br>as an approach to include society in technoscientific innovation. <br>This panel seeks to explore questions about the empowerment and co-creation <br>nexus. Who or what is empowered, by what means (emergence), and to what ends? <br>Which concepts of power and agency might help us to think this through? Does <br>empowerment for some mean disempowerment of others? What are the implications <br>for ethics, responsibility and governance? What makes empowerment under <br>co-creation different from existing calls for participation in innovation? <br>We welcome conceptual and empirical papers that explores these questions and <br>others that deal with the role of empowerment, communities, agency in <br>practices of co-creation and knowledge production. <br> <br> <br>Shelly Tsui, Eindhoven University of Technology; <br>Cian O'Donovan, University College London; <br>Makoto Takahashi, Technical University Munich; <br>Sophie Nyborg, Technical University of Denmark - DTU; <br>Erik Laes, Eindhoven University of Technology; <br>Mandi Astola, E, Eindhoven University of Technology <br> <br> <br> <br>[http://www.dtu.dk/-/media/DTU_Generelt/Andet/mail-signature-logo.png] <br> <br> <br>Sophie Nyborg <br> <br>Forsker <br> <br> <br>Department of Technology, Management and Economics <br> <br>Innovation Division <br> <br>Dir. +45 45 25 45 40 <br> <br>sonyb@dtu.dk <br> <br>Akademivej <br> <br>Building 358, room 168 <br> <br>2800 Kgs.
