Designers have a unique opportunity to strengthen voices. Through their methods and tools they can become a vehicle to elevate unheard or marginalized groups and individuals who for some reason are not invited to be part of the discussion.
This brings us to this month’s amazing speaker, Åsa Gillberg. On the 28th of October, Åsa will share her experience within the social sciences field, including examples from her work as a family advisory officer for vulnerable EU citizens, and how she weaves it together with methods and experiences as a UX designer.
In her talk “Making the weaker voices heard”, she will unveil how she has used tools from both fields to help groups identify and (re)formulate their needs, even when a problematic situation was considered normal by the group itself.
Where: Amoeba Breakfast: 07:30 - 08:25 Talk: 08:25 - 09:00
Hope we see you on the 28th!
