Human Empathy as a Basis for Cross-Cultural Healthcare Design
PúblicoConteúdo disponível para baixar
open in viewerThe goal of our project was to work in collaboration with the people of Dwenase, Ghana to improve their health center using a human-centered co-design process. Human-centered means empathizing with the local people, allowing designers to visualize and understand the effects that potential solutions could have on the community. Additionally, co-design is working with the community to develop solutions together, since they know best what they need and what will work. We aimed to blend together contributions from the community - the “local experts” - with that of the “academic experts” to create the best possible solution.
