SUMMARY:CHIWORK Dec 9 - Roundtable on the Future of Care Work
DESCRIPTION:Please join us at the final CHIWORK session of this year for a roundtable on the future of care work! Details are below:\n\nPlease join us at 4 pm London / 8 am Seattle / 9.30 pm New Delhi on Thursday 9th December for a roundtable with Naveena Karusala\, Azra Ismail\, Cella Sum\, Elizabeth Fetterolf\, Anthony Poon\, Melissa Renau Cano\, Ambika Tandon\, Abhishek Sekharan\, and Neha Kumar.\n \nAbstract: The deep necessity and simultaneous devaluation of care infrastructures in many societies across the world signals how care work and its futures are subject to unique power dynamics compared to other work. We thus need to attend to the broader social\, political\, and economic systems that shape care work and the emerging technologies being used in it. Researchers who came together around this topic at a CSCW 2021 workshop are excited to further the conversation through this CHIWORK roundtable discussion. We invite researchers and practitioners to join us in asking several critical questions of the future of care work: How is care work (de)valued\, (in)visibilized\, or coerced under capitalism and to what end? What narratives drive the push for technology in care work and whom does it benefit? Who controls narratives of the future of work and what insights does a focus on care work open up? And how can we as researchers advocate for and with care and caregivers?\n \nAttend: Direct Zoom link (Link also in the attached .ics).

SUMMARY:Studying intersectional challenges in gig work: lessons from the global South
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: With the rise and proliferation of gig economy platforms providing ride hailing\, food delivery and other app-based services on-demand in major urban centers of the world\, there have been major transformations in work and life globally. Gig platforms have certainly disrupted and redefined the discovery and allocation of casual work through algorithmic management\, creating grave concerns for regulating the future of work. Simultaneously\, especially in the global South\, gig platforms have also emerged as important avenues for gaining temporary paid work and socio-economic mobility for low income individuals\, women and migrant workers. Drawing on over five years of ethnographic research with a variety of stakeholders in the gig economy including workers\, managers\, consumers and regulators\, my work shows how platformization produces heterogeneous effects on the lives\, livelihoods and productive and reproductive capacities of different individuals in urban India. This talk will draw on multiple case studies of gig work to show these heterogeneous effects and how everyday technology practice also informs platform design in return. I will also offer some considerations for HCI scholars looking to study the effects of emerging technologies in global South settings. \nAbout: Noopur Raval is a postdoctoral researcher at the AI Now Institute and an adjunct professor at the Tandon School of Engineering at New York University. She received her PhD in Informatics from UC Irvine in 2020 and is a tech ethnographer and interdisciplinary scholar at the intersection of HCI\, Communication and Media Studies\, Cultural Anthropology and Postcolonial History. She has written extensively on gig work\, platformization and the future of work in the global South. Her new work extends to studying the cultural labor and subjective decision-making by global South data annotators in order to train AI/ML systems. Her work has appeared in CSCW\, CHI\, ACM Interactions among other venues. She has also worked in UX research at multiple Microsoft Research labs. Noopur is an alumna of the Berkman-Klein Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University and the Center for Tech\, Society and Policy at UC Berkeley. \nSave the Date: Calendar invitation with Zoom link: (Google Calendar)\, (.ics). Direct Zoom link. \nZoom: https://washington.zoom.us/j/98578905160
