This is such a great place to start. Don't make it more complicated than it needs to be: “Include one person with an access need in each round of user research.” - @katyarnie showing us very hands-on examples and real-life stories on #a11y-testing.

What can you start doing today, as your first steps toward managing negative impact in design?
* Anticipate conflict
* Practice responding to arguments
* Explain/show who suffers
* Suggest alternative paths
* Run workshops
This will allow you to find your allies.
#CampDigital
The Inclusive Panda can help you start talking about #designethics with your colleagues.

#CampDigital
We need to add "The Other Story" into our design thinking. The story of people being hurt.
#CampDigital
We need to address four issues in our design practice:
* How do I know if negative impact is happening?
* How can I feel empowered to stop bad decisions?
* What can I do before negative impact happens?
* What can I do after it happens?
#CampDigital
Why you make bad decisions.
* Lack of knowledge
* Too fast
* External pressure
* Lack of self-awareness
* Health issues
Project methodology tends to empower bad decision-making.
#CampDigital
A call for ethics is all well and good, but we have to get to the root of why there is a call for ethics in order to address the issue properly.
#CampDigital
Part of the solution is to increase transparency around people who are being hurt by digital. When these voices are heard, change will begin.
#CampDigital
No there's nothing that guarantees smaller plates will make people eat less, that using old-age related words will make people walk slower or more options will make you unable to choose.

Here's my previous rant on replication crisis:

How are electric and autonomous cars addressing the problem of road space? Simple answer: they're not.
