About UX for Change

UX for Change was launched on March 8th 2015, at the Talk UX Conference in Manchester, UK, and is the first organisation of its kind. UX for Change emerged from the founder, Sandra Gonzalez, original challenge of how to mobilise the UX design community to get involved with the 2013 UK legislation that focused on teaching children as young as five how to code, but with no plans on teaching them how to design human-centred experiences for the improvement of their community and their own lives. The organisation has been active for a decade across the world, and its focus has widened to meet new challenges focused on supporting positive social and planetary impact, such as utilising technology to aid refugees, providing internet safety tools and techniques for gender-diverse children, and giving consumers powerful information about their carbon footprint, to name a few. The projects and ways in which the organisation engages the UX community have continually evolved depending on the needs and context. Still, at the core, UX for Change has always been about creating meaningful connections. We are committed to connecting the purpose-driven sector with the people interested in learning and applying responsible design practices while promoting collaboration, critical thinking, accountability, and social impact. There are many UX for Change chapters around the world in London in the United Kingdom, Barcelona in Spain, Sydney in Australia, New York, Central Florida, Miami, and Los Angeles in the United States. Our Vision A world where products and services are rooted in regenerative practices, as opposed to extractivism.
