Zusammenfassung
The contribution illustrates in what way research and development processes can benefit from the integration of diversity perspectives by showing several examples from computer science and other closely related disciplines. Building on this a possible contribution of diversity perspectives for computer science will be presented. Especially in applied computer science, which is supposed to support human activities by designing technical artifacts, the integration of the perspectives of diverse users is an important criterion for the success of the systems being developed. How can diversity perspectives be integrated in other fields of computer science? And how can computer science contribute to the current societal discourse?
