What is the role of CSCW as methodology and epistemology in the development of interactive technology for Proactive Health? What contributions are CSCW researchers best prepared to make to the critical and timely development of re-designing our cultures to support health as a social good? This workshop proposes to dedicate its two days to exploring these questions and to produce a research agenda for CSCW for Proactive Health. These questions are both critical and timely. Does CSCW have a particular research contribution to make to the critical and timely development of re-designing our cultures to support health as a social good rather than as a medical condition? This workshop proposes to dedicate its two days to explore these questions, in order to:
1) Produce a draft research agenda for CSCW challenges related to Proactive Health.
2) Develop a near and longer term set of objectives to deliver on this agenda.
