This course invites participants to reimagine the role of technology through the lens of Human-Centered Design. Over three sessions, we will explore how ethical principles, intersectionality, and sustainability can be integrated into how we design and build things. Drawing from frameworks like Design Justice, Plurality, and Human-Centered Design, we will explore how technology can be more inclusive and equitable, for humans and for the planet.

Alex Papadopoulos is trying to understand what a technologist is so that he can call himself one. Meanwhile, they think about identity, belonging, and human-centered technology, and co-run a queer film festival. By day, Alex is a UX Researcher, working with projects in the public sector and healthcare, and he used to work for the non-profit sector.
