MobMaps: Towards a Shared Environment for Collaborative Social Activism

by: Luís Gens, Hugo Paredes, Paulo Martins, Benjamim Fonseca, Yishay Mor, and Leonel Morgado

In: CRIWG 2009, Lecture Notes in Computer Science LNCS 5784 (2009) .

Abstract

Nowadays it is possible to disseminate information to the all world in real time using current communication tools supported mostly by the Internet. The work of several organizations reporting a multitude of problems that our society faces can be sustained by participatory platforms, which stimulate the collaboration of participants all over the world. In this paper we present a technological platform that provides a shared environment for collaborative social activism. We adapted the platform to a particular organization, MachsomWatch that reports human rights abuses in Israelis checkpoints. Finally we present some preliminary results obtained by ethnographic research using the developed platform.
