[Themaintainers] The Journal of Community Informatics - now accepting submissions

[Peter Johnson]

Dear colleagues,



After a brief hiatus, the Journal of Community Informatics (JoCI) is back, and reinvigorated. Building on the 16-year history of JoCI, the editorial board is now accepting submissions in all areas of Community Informatics and related topics, particularly with how ICT can be useful to the range of traditionally excluded populations and communities, and how it can support local economic development, social justice and political empowerment using the Internet. CI is a point of convergence concerning the use of ICTs for diverse stakeholders, including community activists, nonprofit groups, policymakers, users/citizens, and the range of academics working across (and integrating) disciplines as diverse as Information Studies, Management, Computer Science, Social Work, Planning, and Development Studies. Emerging issues within the CI field include: community access to the internet, community information, online civic participation and community service delivery, community and local economic development, training networks, telework, social cohesion, learning, e-health, and e-governance.
