Never underestimate the extent to which some journalists want to draw solid conclusions from incomplete and biased data. Ideally summarised in a misleading headline.

@amybphd @mrialena Ha! I’d forgotten This was in your book Amy. I just on Friday gave your UX Podcast interview as a listening assignment for my Design Ethics students. Today I‘m showing them this :)
Still the worst example of #confirmshaming I’ve been subjected to.

"I don't care. I have nothing to hide."
"Maybe you have something to protect?"

@vdignum @UNICEF Great advice, thank you Virginia!
Doing a Child Impact Assessment with a client in healthcare next month. As I’m revisiting The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and the steps in child impact assessment, I’m realising I need to work this into all projects I’m involved with.

Excited to reveal my participation as a track leader in the newly launched professional development program Ambition Empower.
With the opportunity to help more organisations apply design ethics practices for mitigating harm, I am allowing myself to feel hopeful.
More on my blog, with links to the program.
