DIS2008 - Cape Town, South Africa

DIS 2008 will be hosted in Cape Town, South Africa from Monday 25 February – Wednesday 27 February 2008. It will be the first DIS conference to be held outside the USA or Europe, and as such aims to challenge participants to reflect on designing interactive systems for users outside these established markets. This is especially relevant as these markets are fast becoming more lucrative and influential.
