Issues:Issues:• 1. What is one of the biggest surprises you have had in doing HCI in the
context of International Development?
• 2. In terms of lessons learned, what do you suggest in terms of new or altered methods of HCI?
• 3. What can you recommend in terms of attitude in doing International Development work?
• 4. What kind of preparation can you recommend for people about to do HCI in ID in a particular cultural context?
• 5. More generally, what should people wishing to work in this area study? Do you have any particular recommendations for readings, exercises, work experience opportunities, conferences, etc.?
• 6. Why should we care about this topic?
• 7. Other than exploitative economics, are there any potential benefits to the so-called developed world for HCI and International Development?
