Last week the CCC held a workshop on Supporting At-Risk Users Through Responsible Computing in Washington, DC. We brought together 49 experts from industry, academia, and civil society, to explore the specific challenges at-risk users face online, and how the research community can best support and protect these people. The media often highlights certain groups of individuals who have a higher risk of experiencing technology-facilitated abuse than others, frequently publishing stories focusing on children and older adults. However, these groups only comprise a portion of at-risk online users. The organizers of this workshop strived to include researchers working with a broad range of at-risk populations to improve the understanding […]
Computing Community Consortium Blog
The goal of the Computing Community Consortium (CCC) is to catalyze the computing research community to debate longer range, more audacious research challenges; to build consensus around research visions; to evolve the most promising visions toward clearly defined initiatives; and to work with the funding organizations to move challenges and visions toward funding initiatives. The purpose of this blog is to provide a more immediate, online mechanism for dissemination of visioning concepts and community discussion/debate about them.
