Abstract
This paper describes two current applied research projects which investigate the design and implementation of ICT-based participatory content creation programs by community multimedia centres and similar organisations in India, Nepal and Sri Lanka. These projects are informed by both Participatory Design and Ethnographic Action Research methodologies. The application of these methodologies has resulted in an innovative creative relationship in which embedded local researchers use their ethnographic data to inform participatory content creation projects by community media organisations. It is hoped that this relationship may provide a sustainable creative engagement system incorporating underserved communities and ICT infrastructure initiatives.
