<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span lang="EN-US">Abstract: <o:p></o:p></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">The incorporation of digital infrastructure has become increasingly important in Smart Cities. Inclusive Smart City design requires an intersectional approach that engages human and non-human actors. While in academia
inclusive design and socio-technical methods are emerging, Smart City practitioners lack universally accessible collections of methods applicable for diverse target groups. This workshop examines creative, qualitative and participatory methods with practitioners
and researchers for inclusive design of Smart Cities that consider the needs and preferences of vulnerable target groups such as older adults, wildlife, and nature. A participatory approach is applied, taking into account the multidisciplinary complex work
context of practitioners, e.g., representatives of municipalities. This workshop is the third of a series of workshops against this theme and closes the circle of different relevant stakeholders (researchers, vulnerable target groups, practitioners), resulting
into a collection of inclusive, participatory methods which are made accessible to Smart City practitioners in an online toolbox.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span lang="EN-US">Call for Participation: <o:p></o:p></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">This half-day workshop will explore creative, qualitative, and participatory methods for the inclusion of vulnerable human and non-human groups (wildlife, nature) in Smart City design.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">This hands-on hybrid workshop, which is the third in a series of workshops and whose orientation is based on all previous measures, will facilitate the exchange of methods and knowledge, the building of skills in the
use of the methods presented, and the collaborative design of an active Caring Community using a user-centered evaluated spectrum of methods for inclusive Smart City design processes that give voice to the most vulnerable groups. With this focus, we lean on
CSCW-related studies that design and support collaborative work and coordination on the basis of computer-supported systems.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">The workshop-related Miro board will share the essence of the accepted letters and diverse methods to inform all participants before the workshop and give therefore more space for deep dialogue, exploration and adaptation
of methods in the workshop. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">We invite researchers interested in the theme but also professionally active or experienced with at least one of the vulnerable target groups (human and/or non-human actors) and/or their practitioners. Motivation letters
can be uploaded in the Google Form sharing your motivation, professional background, method used and experiences linked to that. For more details and future collaboration see our
