“…However, crowdsourcing applied to community engagements often positions participants as data collectors (e.g. reporting issues of local infrastructure [34,50,51,55]), with limited work seeking to involve distributed participants in individual or collective sensemaking.…”

Community engagements are qualitative processes that make use of participants local knowledge for democratic decisionmaking, but often exclude participants from data analysis and dissemination. This can mean that they are left feeling that their voice is not properly represented in the final output. This paper presents a digital community engagement process, Talk-Futures, that actively involves participants in the production, distributed analysis and summarization of qualitative data. The design of TalkFutures was explored through a five-week deployment with the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) as part of a consultation designed to inform future strategy. Our analysis of deployment metrics and post-deployment interviews outline how TalkFutures: (i) increased modes of participation across the qualitative workflow; (ii) reduced barriers to participation; and (iii) improved representation in the engagement processes.

“…The ubiquity of mobile devices and geo-located media has also helped 'bring place into' civic discussions in HCI, for example through studies investigating the collection and use of participatory cycling route data about the built environment [44]. Similarly, 'Spokespeople', a tool which captures 'annotated routes', enables cyclists to augment GPS traces of their journeys with onthe-go audio comments or post-journey textual descriptions for reflection, discussion, and civic discourse [51]. Images have been used to log place-based maintenance issues with civic agencies [14], an approach that has been investigated in the context of wheelchair users [37,66].…”

Recent HCI research has investigated how digital technologies might enable citizens to identify and express matters of civic concern. We extend this work by describing Journ-eyCam, a smartphone-based system that enables powered wheelchair users to capture video and sensor data about their experiences of mobility. Thirteen participants used Journ-eyCam to document journeys, after which the data they collected was used to support discussions around their experiences. Our findings highlight how the system facilitated the articulation of complex embodied experiences, and how the collected data might have particular value in surfacing these experiences to help inform urban design and policymaking. Participants valued the ways in which JourneyCam's moving image and sensor data made hard-to-express sensations apparent, as well as how it enabled them to surface previously unrecognised issues. We conclude by highlighting future opportunities for how such tools might enable citizens to inform and influence civic governance.

“…HCI researchers are increasingly engaging in place-based agendas. Interactive systems are built to collect, analyse, or advocate with place-based data, spanning diverse issues such as environmental quality [61], road safety [6,50], urban development [20,37], gentrification [16,51], or police violence [57]. Data frequently concerns issues raised by local activists and communities of place [52,70,75].…”

This paper explores the value of a participant-led walking method, during which matters of place in urban or rural contexts are explored. While walking, a diverse dataset is collected, including audio recordings, photographs, GPS tracks, as well as three words that participants are prompted for at each stop along the walk via a bespoke web application. We used this approach in an urban community in the UK and a rural community in Greece as part of ongoing place-based initiatives. Our findings show how participants connected personal and emotional stories with structural issues, countered official, 'authorised' discourses about both places, and how maps and videos created after the walks acted as boundary objects. We reflect on the claims of walking as a method that fosters equitable researcher-participant relationships, outline future design directions for participatory walking and mapping technologies, and consider the value of walking methods and map-making for participatory design.
