ENG // Depatriarchiza design for social and planetary restoration. Female and dissadent voices in Latin America design
Andrea Soler & Taina Campos, Diseña Colectiva
Empathy is not a tool, but a lifestyle we as designers need to weave into everything we do. But how do we make sure that we gain enough empathy, and how far do we actually need to go? When doing user research, we need to keep in mind that every data point has a story, that we need to listen to. In this workshop, we’ll play around with different research methods and learn how to gain empathy on different levels, and how to utilize these valuable insights in order to create effective products that speak to the user.
