It introduces the concepts of collaborative open innovation and co-design in the context of addressing the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It then discusses socio-cultural differences\, ethical conundrums and ethi cal research principles when engaging with local communities.\n\nThese con cepts will be contextualised through an African case study ([mHealth4Afrik a](http://www.mhealth4afrika.org/)) focusing on the consultative\, multi-s takeholder\, co-design approach taken to implement and validate a cross-bo rder\, health oriented\, research and innovation project supported by the European Commission under Horizon 2020. The lecture will conclude by shari ng good practices and recommendations to be considered when co-designing i nterventions in resource constrained environments.\n\nThis lecture will sh are insight into volunteer activities undertaken by SSIT IST-Africa SIGHT members providing digital literacy training to healthcare professionals in health facilities in Ethiopia\, Kenya\, Malawi and South Africa. It will also facilitate discussion around potential opportunities for IEEE and non -IEEE members to get more involved in ethical Sustainable Development and ICT4D activities locally.\n\nFor more information\, please visit [SSIT Web site](https://technologyandsociety.org/event/co-designing-ethical-interven tions-in-resource-constrained-environments-ssit-distinguished-lecture/)\n\ nCo-sponsored by: IEEE Madras Section SSIT Chapter\, IEEE Bangladesh SSIT Chapter\, IEEE Kerala SSIT Chapter and SSIT IST-Africa SIGHT \n\nSpeaker(s ): Miriam Cunningham\, \n\nAgenda: \n7 - 7:40pm (Indian Standard Time) / 2 :30 - 3:10 pm (UTC+1) Introduction and Presentation\n7:40 - 8:00pm (EST) / 3:10 - 3:30 pm (UTC+1) Discussion\, Q&A\n\nVirtual: https://events.vtools .ieee.org/m/267636 LOCATION:Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/267636 ORGANIZER:miriam@iimg.com SEQUENCE:13 SUMMARY:Co-designing Ethical Interventions in Resource Constrained Environm ents (SSIT Lecture) URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/267636 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p><a href="https://www.ieee-ukandireland.org /chapters/society-on-social-implications-of-technology/" target="_blank" r el="noopener"><strong>IEEE UK and Ireland SSIT Chapter</strong></a>\,&nbsp \;<strong><a href="https://www.ieeemadras.org/" target="_blank" rel="noope ner">IEEE Madras Section SSIT Chapter</a></strong>\, <strong>IEEE Banglade sh SSIT Chapter</strong>\, <strong>IEEE Kerala SSIT Chapter</strong> and < strong>SSIT IST-Africa SIGHT</strong> are cooperating to organise this SSI T Lecture as a joint Chapter Webinar.</p>\n<p>IEEE and SSIT Members as wel l as non-IEEE Members are invited to Register and participate.
