The Designers' Role and Responsibility  I On designing  a communication platform for the sharing of stories

When designing for camp residents, we recognize how critical the involvement of refugees and other stakeholders is in developing and sustaining the final product.For example, a proposal for a social platform to foster community interaction between the refugee camp and a wider audience is rout to fail without a plan to be self-sustaining.That raises the question of the role and responsibility of each actor! To what extent each party has control over the platform operation?Who sets the rules of interaction, curates the content and censors the submissions?
