Lightning talks

A fast-paced session with new speakers and new topics. Come for variety and fun!

At the 2022 conference, Caroline curated a session with four lightning talks - all from people who are from communities under-represented in user experience and service design.

• Two speakers chose to talk about their work from the point of view of their community (neurodivergent, lived experience of the prison system).
• One speaker was new to SDinGOV and chose to speak about communities in general.
• One speaker chose to try a new technique.
• Three speakers had never spoken at SDinGOV previously.
• One speaker had never spoken at any conference ever.

Overall, the response to the speakers was great and the session featured on the feedback wall as a highlight of the conference.
