Exploring Sustainable HCI Research Dimensions Through the Inclusive Innovation Framework

Abstract

When frameworks and design principles for open innovation and open sustainability innovation (OSI) were established in earlier research, their foundations were originated from the expanded concepts of universal design (UD) from human-computer interaction (HCI) in a prescriptive form. This also was the basis of an inclusive innovation framework (IIF) aiming for a sustainable information system design. In this paper the IIF originating from the concept of combining UD and open innovation (OI) in promoting information technology enabling sustainability goals was analyzed together with OI and OSI frameworks. The role of OI in formulating the IIF was thereby strengthened, which in parallel helped recognizing the extended conceptions of sustainable HCI (SHCI) and its future research path through the use of IIF.

“…Various forms of sustainability exist. Social sustainability refers to the impact that technology has on society and how it affects different and specific groups of people (Assefa and Frostell, 2007), such topic it's been discussed through the development of frameworks such the Inclusive Innovation Framework discussed by Nyström and Mustaquim (2018) which is based on the principles defined as simple intuitive use, perceptible information, low physical effort, flexibility in use. In this research, we tackle the issue of social sustainability from the perspective of inclusion and inclusivity, ensuring that the technology we design and develop is accessible to everyone, regardless of their background or abilities.…”

Scientific Literature Analysis on Sustainability with the Implication of Open Innovation

“…The joint study of sustainability and open innovation has not been one of the main topics on sustainability for the three scenarios analyzed, however, this topic is gaining attention in the literature. This trend is due to the fact that companies achieve their industrial objectives and sustainability goals by using open innovation for the development of sustainable goods and services, all this considering an inclusive innovation framework that brings together diverse stakeholders [21,76]. This implies the achievement of sustainability has become a purpose for distinct sectors, like e-commerce [67], the sharing economy [66], and those belonging to the fourth industrial revolution [23], and for diverse types of companies, like SMEs, start-ups, and large companies [65].…”
