Human Centred Design tools and techniques can help your projects and services work better by focusing on how they actually interact with them and what people really need.

Whether you’re considering an internal digital transformation project or want to design a new product or service for beneficiaries, using the concepts and tools based in Human Centred Design will help you open up new perspectives, question assumptions and create better solutions.

In this session you’ll explore some great tools to help you develop lots of ideas, work out which ones to take forward and discover some easy, low cost ways to test them out.

We’ll look at a range of tools including brainwriting, lego prototypes, storyboards and using PowerPoint for fast digital prototypes.

This session follows Human Centred Design PART 1: Tools for Discovering and Defining
