“…"… takes advantage of the shared or common knowledge of a culture which could be defined by country boundaries, language, cultural conventions, race, shared activities or workplace" Turk and Trees (1999) also demonstrated that there is increasing attention to investigating ways to develop designs suitable for different culture backgrounds and indigenous people. According to Yeo (1996), Turk and Trees (1999) the global information systems on the web should be developed in such way as to localize information and design for different culture background users.…”

This paper aims to explore cultural issues that are likely influence business information systems and their graphical components in electronic commerce applications on web sites. Studying the cultural relativism of user interface design in implementing web-based electronic commerce will provide guidelines for the global use of electronic business tools. The paper summarises recent work on i mplementation issues for the improvement of information system usage in a variety of system environments and web interface design issues, which should be designed to suit users on a global level. This paper attempts to illustrate requirements for graphical components and key issues in the globalized e-commerce web site development. This paper also discusses examples of effective popular customer-web site interfaces currently in use.

Youth empowerment and information and communication technologies: a case study of a remote Australian Aboriginal community

et al. 2009

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

In spite of a 'digital divide', Aboriginal groups in Australia, as internationally, are increasingly using information and communication technologies (ICTs) to maintain their cultures, communicate, archive knowledge, empower their communities, develop skills and generate income. Each community uses the technologies differently in accordance with their particular needs and the opportunities available. The use of ICTs in Aboriginal youth empowerment is illustrated through a case study of an initiative undertaken by the Walkatjurra Cultural Centre in Leonora, remote Western Australia. A participatory process was used to engage the Centre's young people and they were given individual assistance to develop their ICT related capacity. The community conceives this youth empowerment to be part of a broader youth participation process that will contribute to the Centre's overall objectives.

“…Importantly, attention needs to be paid to the development of culturally intelligent AI machines that are sensitive to the culture and communication protocols within different language and ethnic groups. There are several studies (e.g., [19][20][21]) proposing cultural information systems for acquiring information and knowledge about people's culture. Information from such systems can potentially help to support the development of cultural awareness in AI machines.…”

Disaster Risk Communication in Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Communities: The Role of Technology

et al. 2018

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Migrants, ethnic minorities and people from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) communities are often more vulnerable to natural disasters due to cultural barriers and limited proficiency in the dominant language, which sometimes undermine their ability to access, interpret and respond to warnings. Technology can assist in engendering culturally and linguistically appropriate communication with CALD communities if key challenges are identified. This study contributes by reviewing relevant literature with the aim of ascertaining the most pressing challenges requiring technological interventions. Three broad issues (i.e., trust, message tailoring, and message translation) are identified and discussed, and potential solutions for addressing these issues are recommended.
