Season 1, Episode 04 Show Notes

Sequoyah Hunter-Cuyjet is vice president of Determined by Design, a firm which developed a framework of seven key principles for achieving design equity. She walks us through each of those principles and how they differ from the typical design process you might be used to.   

Susie Wise is an educator at Stanford’s d.school and author of Design for Belonging. She describes how to consider belonging as the end point of a design — and how encouraging belonging is also a crucial part of helping your team members show up and contribute their best work. 


After listening, you will be able to:

  • Identify principles of designing for equity. 
  • Evaluate how current design practices can be reimagined to design with equity in mind.
  • Define belonging, othering, and inclusion, and examine their importance.
  • Assess how to design with belonging as the main goal for projects.
