*Minitrack: Using IS for Good*


*Track: Social Inclusion and Sociotechnical Issues*


*AMCIS 2023: Panama City, Panama, August 10 - 12*


*New this year – we will accept papers for in-person presentation as well
as papers for virtual presentation. We still anticipate a strong in-person
set of papers and vibrant experience, but we also want to encourage you to
submit your best work even if you already know that you will not be able to
be physically present. Authors of accepted virtual presentation papers will
be provided an asynchronous platform for their work.*


*Minitrack Description*

We welcome papers that theoretically or empirically advance research on the
impact of IS on society when IS and ICTs specifically target the
improvement of social welfare. Papers may use any acceptable methodology
and theory. Submissions are encouraged at any level of analysis or
progress. Both full papers and emerging research are encouraged so that
authors can gain valuable feedback for moving their projects forward.
Possible topics may include (but are not limited to):



●      The role of Fintech in economic development

●      Projects or systems focused on the digital divide

●      Social connections of geographically distant groups with a common
cause

●      Digital strategies to fight disenfranchisement and marginalization

●      Corporate social responsibility success and failure

●      Digital activism that advances human rights

●      Equitable access to remote work
