Given the current push towards developing and implementing smart cities policies that affect transportation systems in places like Kampala and Kigali, it is important to examine how the different modes of transportation meet the needs of diverse passengers and identify opportunities for technology to address any inequities. Prior studies have focused on the impact of informal public transportation on government policy and examined drivers' perspectives, but they largely overlooked the experiences of passengers and other industry stakeholders. In this study, we conducted interviews and surveys with public transportation riders with different disabilities as well as other stakeholders, including transport and financial technology creators. Our findings illuminate inequities in the transportation system surrounding discrimination and harassment, influence of ability on preferred transportation modes despite inaccessible interfaces, and influence of perceived social hierarchical structures on innovation. We present insights into how passengers appropriate technology to overcome challenges, and we uncover opportunities for technology to fill additional gaps. Lastly, we discuss how these findings support emergent frameworks such as aspiration-based design, and we present potential envisioned futures of technology for informal public transportation.","PeriodicalId":176951,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 3rd ACM SIGCAS Conference on Computing and Sustainable Societies","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125633518","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ramanujapuram, Charan Kumar Malemarpuram","doi":"10.1145/3378393.3402248","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1145/3378393.3402248","url":null,"abstract":"Public services, such as public health supply chains, in low- and middle-income countries can be characterized as low-resource environments, where both infrastructure and human capacity are limited. There is no strong culture of data recording or use, with ad hoc reporting practices, poor planning and lack of coordination. All these lead to poor supply chain performance, thereby restricting access to medicines, and eventually resulting in poorer health and mortality. We describe the ground-up design of Logistimo SCM, a supply chain management software, offered as a service, that has enabled a transformative change in public health supply chains, leading to improved performance. Our approach is rooted in bottom-up empowerment of the human value chain, based on the principle that higher self-efficacy amongst health workers and managers can lead to sustained changes in data recording and use behaviors. This is achieved through a service that optimizes data collection effort, maximizes supervisory bandwidth, promotes proactive and collaborative operations, and enables frictionless performance recognition. We describe the guiding principles of inclusive software service design and four mechanisms that enable the appropriate conditions for stimulating a behavior of data recording and use. We demonstrate their effectiveness in achieving good supply chain performance through case studies in India and Africa. The principles and methods discussed here are generic and can be applied to any low-resource environment.","PeriodicalId":176951,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 3rd ACM SIGCAS Conference on Computing and Sustainable Societies","volume":"1006 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123107867","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Global Goods software is non-commercial software designed to support global development goals. We argue that a fundamental challenge behind this type of software is the different roles of the global organizations that fund projects, the country leadership that controls implementation, and the actual users of the software. To address this, it necessary to have a design process that balances interests of stakeholders and a technical design that allows for modularity and extensibility. We present a case study of an application for country level management of the immunization cold chain that we have developed and contrast it with major Global Goods software systems such as DHIS2 and OpenMRS. The contributions of the work include the design of a pipeline for building a Global Goods application that is deployed across multiple countries, a collection of lessons learned during system design and implementation, and a comparison of extensibility strategies of different global goods applications.","PeriodicalId":176951,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 3rd ACM SIGCAS Conference on Computing and Sustainable Societies","volume":"83 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128925561","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
