The Participatory Design Conference

The Participatory Design Conference is an event focused on involving users and stakeholders directly in the design process of technology, systems, or services. It emphasizes collaboration to ensure that the final products meet the actual needs and preferences of those who will use them. Participants typically include researchers, designers, and users working together through workshops, presentations, and discussions. The goal is to create more effective, inclusive, and user-friendly designs by valuing diverse perspectives and shared decision-making throughout the development process.
