A workshop will be organised at Dipartimento di Architettura e Urbanistica, Politecnico di Bari, Italy. The aim of the workshop is to make a distinctive contribution to the research roadmap for e-Participation systems.

Some of the research questions that will be addressed are the following:

1. What makes e-participatory knowledge distinctive?
2. What new possibilities do digital media open up for participatory planning?
3. What are the sociotechnical enablers and obstacles to effective e-participatory knowledge management?
4. What evidence do we have that digital media tools can increase stakeholders’ participatory impact on decision makers, and what non-technical factors may be critical in such “success stories”?
