Research on IT and Marginalization: A Brief Summary of Our Efforts, Community Building, and Emerging Themes

Year: 2025

Type: editorial

Abstract: At the intersection of technology and marginalization lies an urgent need for research that not only interrogates these tensions but also reimagines new possibilities. To promote and grow research on technology and marginalized contexts, we launched a new invited track, ''IT, Social Justice, and Marginalized Contexts,'' at HICSS for three consecutive years (2024-2026); built a community of a total of 600+ scholars (submitting authors, reviewers, and/or mini-track chairs); co-wrote and published four editorials on technology and marginalization; and published HICSS special issues (including this current issue). In this editorial, we look back at our initial efforts, present our current progress, and provide a few directions for further research at the intersection of technology and marginalization.
