Anybody attending the Ada's Conference 2019 in London next Saturday 9th November?I'll be leading a one-hour workshop on how to create ethical and inclusive products and services, a topic that as a customer success manager and D&I champion I'm passionate about.In the session we’ll use the Ethics and Inclusive Framework(c) free tool to help attendees identify, prevent, mitigate, and account for the actual and potential negative impact of the services and products they create.How? We'll(a) Incorporate perspectives of users, unintended users, and non-users who may be indirectly impacted.(b) Evaluate the degree of inclusion in terms of personal characteristics, accessibility, and access to technology.(c) Estimate the likelihood of adverse outcomes.Let me know if you plan to come! I'd love to have the opportunity to meet people from this community that are based in London :)

Hi Patricia, this framework sounds so interesting, I would love to learn more about it! Sad I missed the event/only recently joined Elpha.

Hi Nanda, It's a pity, the workshop went really well. Thanks for your interest in the ethics and inclusion framework! You can read about the overall concept on my personal website (https://patriciagestoso.com/ethics-and-inclusion-framework/). The tool is completely free, so if you think it will be valuable for you, I'll be happy to brief you in a call. BTW, the framework was also featured in the last mewsletter from the Inclusive Toolkit group from the University of Cambridge (http://www.inclusivedesigntoolkit.com/VBA_bulletin_issue_5/). Best, Patricia
