About
Dr. Janghee Cho is a visionary researcher at the intersection of human-computer interaction, future-of-work studies, and critical technology design. Their work fundamentally rethinks how emerging technologies—including automation, robotics, and mixed reality—can reshape care work, a domain long undervalued within capitalist systems. In their highly-cited 2024 paper, “Collective Imaginaries for the Futures of Care Work,” Cho explores how these technologies might transform the physical, emotional, and developmental labour essential to society. By centering collective imagination and participatory design, Cho challenges techno-solutionist narratives, arguing instead for futures where technology supports rather than displaces care workers. This contribution has already garnered significant attention, with 3 citations in its first year, reflecting its timely and provocative impact. Cho’s work is notable for bridging speculative design with pressing social justice concerns, offering a critical framework for researchers and practitioners alike. For students and scholars interested in equitable technology design, Cho’s research provides a compelling roadmap for building futures where innovation serves human dignity and collective well-being.
