Session 2: People-Centered Design Research Talkshop

The second of 2, capacity building talkshops focus on People-Centered or Participatory Design Research and methods to carry out this type of research. In a similar fashion as the previous talkshop, this session provided some background information—i.e. frameworks, language, skills, etc.—in addition to a little practical experience. Now, keep in mind, these were only 2-hour sessions so the emphasis was on providing a high-level overview about Design Research and what that looks like in action.

Here’s a some images on the great group that participated in this second session:
