Women-Centric Design: An Introductory Workshop

June 13 | 9:00 am - 6:30 pm CEST

Join the Design for Women Workshop to incorporate an inclusive, women-centric lens in your thinking, ideation and creative toolkit.

About the Workshop

At the heart of this workshop is the central question: how might we truly serve women?

Chances are that many of us regularly use, and build so-called “gender-neutral” experiences that often overlook key needs of women. This is because today’s design, strategy and innovation methodologies exclude women: under the guise of being gender-neutral, the way we work today often produce “one-size-fits-men” outcomes. In this workshop, we introduce practitioners to the foundational tools from our Women-Centric Design toolkit.

Workshop Agenda & Outcomes

__INTRODUCTION: An increased understanding of how so called gender-neutral design methodologies overlook women.

__ LEARNING: Applicable key themes to evaluate and re-design products and services with a women-centric lens.

__APPLICATION: Participants work in small groups to evaluate product and service experiences, applying their learnings right away.

Who is this workshop for?

This workshop is for designers and impact practitioners. We define designer expansively. This workshop assists practitioners across research, innovation, organisational strategy, service design, social impact, branding and marketing, product and engineering apply a women-centric lens to their existing creative and strategic practices.
