3. Diversity, Inclusion, Equity and Belonging at the Interaction Awards

In this episode, our host Diego Pulido sits down with Nalla Faye (interaction designer at H&M in Stockholm, Sweden & a member of the Interaction Awards planning committee) to talk about Diversity Inclusion, Equity and Belonging (DIEB) at the Interaction Awards, taking place during Interaction Week in 2021. Nalla offers details on her role within the DIEB department, as well as how the Interaction Design Association is making sure more and more designers are represented at the awards, regardless of where they live, their country of residence, or whether an entry is submitted in a language other than English. She also shares her opinion on the importance of accounting for diversity and inclusion in this event (and within the field of Interaction Design) --especially given the pronounced state of social unrest, discrimination and inequality the world is currently facing. Remember that the deadline for submitting your work for the Interaction Awards is October 31st, 2020. awards.ixda.org / @ixdawards on Twitter / @ixdawards on Instagram
