I often hear that it's difficult to move from good intentions to concrete actions when it comes to designing for positive change.
And that there's no room for inclusion, accessibility or equity when you don't have resources or budget.
After last week's digest, a spark of inspiration came unexpectedly to solve for these challenges ⚡️
I thought to myself...
What if we could build a free community-powered library to help people move from good intentions to concrete actions?
What if we could subvert the idea that equity, inclusion and accessibility considerations are a burden, especially for early-stage or low-resourced projects?
What if we could build the library through co-design to not only share responsibilities and decision-making power but to give people a chance to practice designing for positive change?
What if we could document our learnings, challenges and process in real-time so others can learn with us and help shape our approaches?
From now until June (and beyond), we aim to build an open-source library on designing for positive change. And, we'll document our process and learnings as we build it!
