Presentation
Short Course in Design for diversity: designing inclusively
With SHIFTA’s Course in Design for diversity we will help you to design products, services or environments so that they can be accessed and used by as many people as possible. We will also provide you with the tools you need to develop all kinds of innovative and inclusive proposals to foster a just and diverse future.
Inclusive design intends to adapt all kinds of scenarios taking into consideration the needs of minority population groups, valuing the reasons of gender, age, intellectual capacity, disability, culture, traditions, etc. in the design of experiences, services or products, so that a beneficial experience can be created for all profiles, offering solutions based on their particular characteristics and limitations.
Decisions made in a design process contribute to providing greater inclusion or exclusion of people in aspects such as age, disability, gender and culture. This is why, before knowing how to address these issues (or others, such as geographic, financial or social factors), it is necessary to know how we understand diversity in a current and future context.
