Respectful Curiosity: How and with whom are you building inclusion?

Meld Studios and Norcott Innovation team up to share their experiences of using respectful curiosity as a tool to co-design creative solutions alongside people with disabilities. 

Through our experience, some people (including us) can feel apprehensive to co-design alongside people with disabilities because our lived experiences are perceived to be far from similar. We share why working with people with disabilities should be considered normal practice, not as a ‘bonus’ or a ‘great opportunity’. 

We’ll explore:

  • who are we building inclusion with and for; 
  • mistakes we’ve made along the way (and why these are so important… and normal); 
  • share practical recommendations for recruiting and conducting user research; all while busting some good ol’ assumptions (you know the ones that lead us astray…)
