Asean CHI Symposium: Crossing HCI for Development in Asia Pacific

Abstract

The Asia Pacific region is unique and diverse. Due to its characteristics, defining what will work in the Asia Pacific region might be the hardest challenge. Human Computer Interaction (HCI) can provide guidance on how technology should be designed and adopted. On the other hand, there is a big gap on the awareness and understanding on the importance of HCI to improve the design and development of technology for living. We welcome both academia and industry and provide an excellent opportunity to exchange ideas and information on HCI. Under the big conference theme "Crossings", this symposium aims to bring about cross exchange of information and transfer of knowledge in this multidisciplinary environment and multi-socio-economic aspects of research in HCI.
