MY WORK
DATASHARE
Designing for Social Good/concept creation
This is a participatory design project conducted as part of my PhD research. The project aimed to support small local third Sector organisations in Scotland, in more efficient use of the data to better address the community needs. As an outcome of the co-design, we came up with an online platform to support data exchange and reuse of existing data among local third-sector organisations.
SUGAR
Designing for Social Good/UX
Sugar is a concept of an AI platform aiming to support entrepreneurs to search and communicate with local suppliers and this way develop neighbourhoods and small cities, rather than moving to overpopulated locations or megapoleis. The project was created as part of Tsinghua-Santander World Challenges of the 21st Century in 2018
