  2. 2. Designing Community Economies : Exploring Alternatives for Infrastructuring Food Waste Activism

    Author : Katie Berns; Chiara Rossitto; Jakob Tholander; Danielle Wilde; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Digital Civics; Food-Sharing; Activism; Food Waste; Community Economies; PAR; informationssamhället; Information Society;

    Abstract : By drawing on past CSCW and SHCI scholarship engaged with how technology can support the collaborative work of organising activism and empowering people to respond to diverse sustainability challenges– my research contributes to the emerging field of digital civics by introducing the human geography concept ‘community economies’ as a new way to frame and determine the scope of the design of digital technologies for infrastructuring food waste activism. Using a combination of ethnographic research and participatory action research (PAR), the empirical data were collected through two long-term collaborations with food-sharing communities in Denmark and Sweden and through a collaboration with researchers on a related project that focused on a food-sharing community in Germany.
