This book explores the intersection of information technology (IT) and Indigenous cultures, addressing both the opportunities and challenges that arise when integrating IT into Indigenous communities. It provides theoretical and empirical insights into planning and executing IT projects aimed at serving Indigenous people, discussing cultural considerations, language issues, and the appropriateness of various technologies. The editors bring together research from both Indigenous and non-Indigenous scholars to offer a comprehensive understanding of how IT can be utilized to preserve traditional cultures and promote economic and social renewal within Indigenous communities.
