@matsbjork I need to finish my book first and then I can get cracking ;) But we definitely need a forum to both discuss but also for advice.
Heads up that I'm maintaining a list of books on the topics of ethical, inclusive and sustainable design, over on Kit: kit.com/axbom/design-eā¦ @hashtagkit #designethics
Remember when wikis were new and we spoke at conferences about how wikiwiki means āquickā in Hawaiian?
Those were the times when we thought quick websites would save the world.
There are cries for ethics in the design industry, and I hear these cries. But the cry is a symptom of a greater problem, that of people getting hurt. The design problem is for products and services to NOT harm people. Now *that* we can work with.
You donāt build strategy so that there is one path to victory. You build strategy so that there are as many paths as possible to something that isnāt loss.
Shit will hit the fan, and when it does you will also be defined by how you handle the aftermath. Designing the āafterā is just as important as designing the ābeforeā.
As long as I keep waking up in the middle of the night and sketching stuff I donāt think my book is done. š

If you're curious about what I do to wind down, I draw vector art. I've now started thinking I should maybe try to sell some prints. Or t-shirts. š§

Hehe, sending a newsletter with your own reply-to address lets you know who is on vacation, who is on parental leave and who switched jobs! š
In case you missed it earlier this year: It is now illegal in Iceland to pay women less than men. Meanwhile: "The United States ranks 96th in political empowerment of women, behind Nepal, Algeria and Pakistan. Women make up just 19 percent of Congress." thinkprogress.org/in-iceland-itsā¦

@SimonRefn @MrAlanCooper @levibeach @monteiro Iām keeping a close eye on Impact Management Project who are now exploring the legal implications of a convention around impact management, and possible legal consequences for orgs that contribute to negative impact. impactmanagementproject.com/latest/the-legā¦
@SimonRefn @MrAlanCooper @levibeach @monteiro My sense is that there are different viable paths to regulation that will contribute to an environment where designers can take more responsibility.
@SimonRefn @MrAlanCooper @levibeach @monteiro But also I believe we need to set up support organizations for designers who are looking to take more responsibility but are at a loss on how to start. Iām getting many of these types of questions now.

@tristanbailey @LinkedIn Hey! That looks like a great solution. Thanks!
@implus Is there a way to turn off the red badge icon counter in the sidebar? It would make the environment calmer, allowing me greater control of when I want to engage.
