UX Design for Community: Models for Ethical Co-Creation

Description:

Co-creation is a powerful UX research tool, but what does ethical co-creation look like in action? The Ad Council and Citizen Tech Collective partnered on in-person co-creation sessions with Black and Hispanic men in Texas to inform the design of a new website focused on mental health literacy. This session outlines a case study for planning and integrating trauma-informed practices that center community voices and needs. The audience will leave understanding the power of co-design, how to incorporate insights from co-creation into the design, and considerations for using an ethical approach.
