About the Session
Inclusive design is all the buzz. And while it’s made a lot of strides in recent years, it can still be a challenge to incorporate design research methods that are participatory and fun, but also accessible to diverse audiences.
Whether you’re an experienced designer or new to design research, this session will introduce you to participatory design activities, strategies, and mindsets that have led to the creation of inclusive user experiences. AND – you get to put them into practice!
What’s more, we will review case studies of projects that have utilized these methods, successfully ensuring target users are at the centre of the design process.
