The Brazilian HCI Community Perspectives in Cultural Aspects in HCI

We consider culture as a concept and a concern that permeates the 5 HCI Grand Challenges identified in 2012 by the Brazilian HCI community, and that should be understood and considered from a broad and systemic perspective. In this sense, we conducted a workshop about cultural issues to investigate and promote the topic in the HCI Brazilian community. In this paper, we present and discuss some results from the workshop, highlighting as primary empirical evidence the participants’ survey responses. The results allow us to develop a panorama of how the Brazilian HCI community is interested in the subject of culture understands and makes sense of the subject in their practices.
