Abstract

ABSTRACTThe aim of this paper is to identify the kinds of ethical issues practitioners have to consider in participatory design (PD) practice and use these to inform a set of ethical principles, which can be used to guide practice. It begins by discussing the ways in which PD, as a discipline, has engaged with ethical issues in the past and looks at how other disciplines have identified ethical principles to support ethical practice. It, then, draws upon interviews with researchers who have the experience of collaborative and PD projects to identify ethical considerations that they have encountered in their work and uses these to propose a set of ethical principles. Finally, it ends with a discussion on how a principles-based approach can be combined with other approaches, such as the cultivation of virtues, to support ethical practice in PD.
