Navigating Value and Vulnerability with Cooperative Farmers and their Stakeholders: How information communication technologies can support financial services in the sustain¬able trade industry (Synopsis of Research Results)
Abstract
A final report/synopsis of the design research of Melissa Cliver, Rudy Yuly and Catherine Howard
Overall, our goal is to utilize field observations and design implications that will give IMTFI stakeholders the information needed to create tools to help improve financial inclusion. Focusing on farming cooperatives as intermediaries to the poorest individuals, their day workers, we translate observations and design implications into concepts for financial services available through information communication technologies. Our aim is to generate scalable solutions that can be used throughout the sustainable trade network—a delivery route driven by innovation and fundamentally concerned with fairness, sharing and positive outcomes.
