Join us to learn from authors, researchers, designers, advocates, and practitioners across a range of fields. Together, we'll find out how we can make the future of design more accessible and inclusive. This is Welcomed by Design.
Host and producer: Lynn Priestley,

For more information... about the idea of "average" users discussed in the trailer, issue one of the "Body Language" zine explores the idea of "normal" and "average".
Open resource page with zine and additional resources
You'll notice the above link leads you to a Google doc. We are creating a resource library full of tools and readings that will be useful in getting started with inclusive design. This library will include content specific to episodes, like written transcripts of the episodes and readings like the above zine.
(An unembedded link to the resource library will be at the bottom of this description for anyone needing to copy and paste the link in a web browser.)
