Abstract

Human–Computer Interaction (HCI) makes a significant contribution to economic growth; it is crucial to the market success of digital technologies, including digital services, platforms, and devices, which drive the economic engine. Economic growth, however, has a number of social and environmental consequences. Some HCI researchers have problematized the field’s engagement with growth, suggesting the post-growth philosophy as an alternative. Post-growth focuses on improving the quality of life centered on cooperation, social solidarity, care, justice, sharing, localized development, and other values. Orienting to post-growth could be instrumental in leading the HCI community beyond growth politics by envisioning, designing, and implementing technologies toward building a more sustainable, just, and humane society. This workshop aims to bring together HCI researchers, designers, practitioners, educators, and students to critically reimagine ways to embrace post-growth in and through HCI.
