If you have a brain, you are biased. This simple truth is behind this training, recognizing that diversity is the intersection of many different dimensions.

THE FORMAT

The curriculum of the Masterclass is based on the 12 Dimensions of Diversity ideated by educator and author Poornima Luthra. These dimensions and grouped into 3 pillars:
Physical & physiological diversity (Physical abilities & Appearance, Age, Sexual Orientation, Gender)
Social & Lifestyle diversity (Socio-economic Background, Marital & Parenthood choices, Beliefs and Practices, Ethnicity & Culture)
Cognitive diversity (Education, Experiences & Skills, Personality & Ways of Working, Ways of Thinking & Learning).

By the end of the two-day training you will have:
• an appreciation for the need for greater inclusion in design
• a deep understanding on what it means to design for intersectional diversity
• a set of tools and frameworks to use to design inclusively
