Where's love in e-waste?

Abstract

This workshop focuses on how the notion of love can help explore and define participatory strategies targeted at dealing with issues surrounding e-waste. In particular, the workshop aims to leverage Participatory Design practice in transforming people's relationships with e-waste from negative affective relationships into positive ones through engagement, co-creation, and group envisioning. The workshop focuses particularly on existent e-waste, accepting it as an (unfortunate) outcome of current production strategies in need of change.
