Design For Social Impact | Los Angeles
About this event
Have you ever thought about making the world a better place? Do you wonder whether or not the products and services you are creating serve the greater good?
If you’ve answered yes to these questions then our Design for Social Impact panel is for you! Join us at General Assembly’s Santa Monica campus for a panel discussion on how UX design can change the world. From global health to agriculture, disaster relief, education, and financial inclusion, our panel has experience designing systems and strategies that address the needs and aspirations of underserved communities around the globe.
Overview:
Hear from industry professionals who have taken up the mantle of social change through UX design. Additionally, how can we as UX designers learn to leverage our finely tuned approach to user research to identify problems with a high potential for socially impactful solutions?
What You’ll Take Away:
Good UX design can have a significant positive impact in the world. By focusing our talents, we can make meaningful change and drive towards social good.
Why It Matters:
With all the issues we are facing in society today, many in our own backyard - food deserts, homelessness, gridlock, addiction, illiteracy, conservation - how can we encourage the UX community to take part in meaningful work for the greater good?
