<span style="font-variant-ligatures: no-common-ligatures;">Across many parts of the world, rural regions are undergoing profound structural transformations; driven by the erosion of industrial economies, demographic change, infrastructural fragility and ecological
crises. At the same time, these regions are increasingly targeted by digitalisation agendas, innovation funding and technological imaginaries. But what does innovation and design mean in these contexts? And what kinds of futures do such interventions make
possible?</span></div>

<span style="font-variant-ligatures: no-common-ligatures;">This conference examines the diversity of social and technical practices in rural regions and how innovations are imagined, facilitated, contested and materially shaped. Rather than treating rural areas
as peripheral or deficient spaces, we approach them as complex socio-technical ecosystems. Rural places face global challenges such as aging populations, resource depletion and institutional retreat. But they are also at the forefront of creative solutions
to sustainability and climate challenges, migration and economic development. These seeming contradictions manifest in concentrated and often under-examined ways that are central to the motivation for this conference. We seek to provide a space to reframe
what counts as innovation in rural regions, and how design science, human-computer interaction (HCI), Computer Supported Collaborative Work (CSCW), information and communication technology for development (ICTD), science and technology studies (STS) and regional
research interleave and potentially can collaborate to analyze and shape these dynamics.</span></div>

<span style="font-variant-ligatures: no-common-ligatures;">We aim to foster interdisciplinary alliances that explore rural regions not only as sites of technological intervention, but as domains of situated knowledge, socio-ecological practice, and theoretical
innovation. Because of this, we explicitly encourage interdisciplinary, critical and practice-based submissions. We also are supportive of work from disciplines that typically don’t publish in conference proceedings (e.g., sociology, anthropology). If you
have questions about the process or expectations, please contact the Program Committee Chairs at <a href="mailto:icirr@socio-informatics.de"><span style="font-variant-ligatures: no-common-ligatures;">icirr@socio-informatics.de</span></a></span></div>
