Design Workshops

Using design as an instigator to engage with disability policy

During the introduction of the Disability Discrimination Act 2005 a series of bespoke workshops were created to educate and train employees of the BBC. These were created to develop their consideration of disability both in and out of the workplace in conjunction with the new legislation.

The participants were in groups comprising 50 to 200 people of mixed ability and age. The image depicted is one of fifteen exercises addressing the needs of communication, clarity, feedback and inclusion.
