Abstract
Meeting these challenges is crucial as we work to address community aspirations, capabilities, and problems. We are contributing to this effort through our current research and development on Community Inquiry Labs (CILs). A CIL is most importantly a concept, although we are developing webbased tools that are freely available to anyone wishing to support community inquiry online (http://inquiry.uiuc.edu/cil). Our ultimate aim is to empower communities by supporting the development of the next generation of creative ICT ideas, people, tools, and designs.
