About the session

Theme: Leadership | Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility | Policy Design

Increasingly, design and digital teams are working on complex design equity challenges, which often involve working in systems in need of repair. To create value for communities, we must evolve design and innovation practices to account for the reparative work necessary for lasting and systemic change. Reparative innovation can inform service and policy design with communities, moving us towards abundant and equitable futures.

In this interactive session, we will explore how to bring repair into your work and share practical tools that introduce reparative innovation practices.

Participant takeaways:
