Service Design For Inclusion And Accessibility At Higher Education Institutes, Saksham Panda

ServDes Conference Series

Design for care and support is slowly taking shape in developing nations. Disability support services are yet to find their place in Indian universities. Residential higher education provides a cohesive ecosystem of holistic growth. Students with disabilities have been devoid of these growth opportunities due to the absence of an equitable environment. This paper presents a model to establish inclusion and accessibility services for students with disabilities in residential higher education institutes. The service model results from participatory research and design thinking led co-creation with the students with disabilities at a pioneer residential university.

Autoethnographic Study Of Applying Service Journeys To Asylum Applications, Mari Suoheimo, Tetiana Dubovenko, Ted Matthews, Satu Miettinen

ServDes Conference Series

Just as the COVID-19 pandemic was starting to fade, the Russia–Ukraine conflict erupted into a large-scale war. This caused a new influx of refugees to many European countries. In this case study, through an autoethnographic service journey, we investigate the process of applying for asylum in Norway. We aim to understand the parts of the journey that work well and the issues that still require attention. By analysing the data collected, we can see that there are two main underlying issues, which are creating transparency and building trust between the applicant and the service system involved in asylum seeking processes. …

Adopting A Co-Design Approach To Foster Collaborative Capacity And Reflexivity In Social Prescribing. A Service Ecosystem Design Perspective, Isabel Farina, Daniela Sangiorgi, Marcello Bertotti, Emanuele Torri, Sonia Dias, Maria J. Marques, Regina Alves

ServDes Conference Series

The article aims to explore potential areas of intervention by Service Design to enhance the non-clinical intervention called Social Prescribing (SP). We propose the example of two co-design workshops delivered as training modules for a pilot study in Portugal and in Italy for young people defined as NEETs (Not in Education, Employment or Training) informed by a previous case study research based in the UK where SP is established. We would like to discuss the “collaborative capacity” role that design can play as it will support the future emergence of co-creative activities in the ecosystem generated by Social Prescribing. This …

ServDes Conference Series

In India, a significant number of children live with HIV. Due to a lack of awareness and social stigma, they do not make timely and responsible life decisions around intimacy and HIV status disclosure. In this paper, we share our experience of collaborating with Prayas Health Group (PHG), a prominent Non-Government Organization in Maharashtra (India) that is dedicated to enriching the lives of HIV patients. We used Service Design methods to create a solution that disseminates essential information and enables Adolescents Living with HIV (ALHIV) to make informed life decisions. The solution is an interactive story media where adolescents make …

Community-Based Design Thinking: A Moment Or A Movement?, Danielle Lake, Phillip Motley, Kathleen Flannery, Tracey Thurnes, Audrey Mangili

ServDes Conference Series

This paper assesses the value and limitations of a two-year community-engaged design thinking initiative across one county in the southeast United States. Initiative goals were to foster the design of more inclusive and holistic public health community-based services with underserved communities, institutionalize and socialize community-based design within a public health framework, and build organizational and individual capacities. Findings indicate the acquired design thinking processes transformed mental models, fostered new relationships, and built skills. Findings surfaced challenges related to grant and time constraints as well as organizational differences. Recommendations for service design practitioners and researchers seeking equity-centered, community-first practices are noted, …

Implementation Of Design Tools For Relational Thinking In Design For Social Innovation - A Pluralistic Perspective From Weitou Village’S Oyster Reef Restoration Project, Jixiang Jiang, Yizao Wu, Shu Zhang

ServDes Conference Series

When faced with an increasingly complex environmental crisis, the topic of an ontological transition from the current dualistic-driven ontology to a relational one is gaining importance in multidisciplinary discussions. Modern design has been considered as an essential part of the responsibility for the current crisis, and transformation is imminent (Fry, T., 2019; Fry, T., & Tlostanova, M., 2020). Moreover, a key research direction is emerging: to open up design ontology discussions by incorporating pluralistic cultural perspectives. Service design has grown dramatically in China in recent years (ArtTech innozone&CSDC,2020). On one hand, its development has included many Western-centered design paradigms and …

What Is The Value Of Using A Non-Accessible Service For Users With Disabilities?, Nayara Sardella, Manuela Quaresma

ServDes Conference Series

The subject of accessibility has been gaining prominence and space in the academic literature in recent years, with the advance of technology. However, there is still little discussion about the challenges designers face in applying accessibility to digital interfaces in a dynamic environment, such as the job market, and the impact this has on the accessibility of the interface and the service provided. This paper aims to bring a discussion and reflection about how the process of applying accessibility in interfaces happens inside organizations and how designers deal with the subject – raising questions regarding the value in use of …

Rapid Service Design Method For Services With Robots In Healthcare Facilities Under Covid-19, Satoru Tokkuhisa, Tetsuro Morimoto

ServDes Conference Series

Under the influence of COVID-19, rapid research and design are required for the service design process, and even before COVID-19, there were expectations for the adoption of service robots as an answer to labour shortages in the medical field. Against this background, we developed a method for rapid service design method to organise services with robots under COVID-19. This method aims to achieve rapid service design based on behavioural change by introducing rapid ethnography and behavioural design into the research, analysis, design and evaluation steps. To test this method, we implemented two services in two months. The results of the …

Reconsidering (Service) Design In View Of Systemic Challenges: Insights From A Quantum Theoretical Perspective, Ingo Oswald Karpen, Melis Senova

ServDes Conference Series

(Service) designers must increasingly navigate complex and interconnected challenges in their daily work. In response, new design practices are emerging that are more systemic and strategic in their orientation. However, there is insufficient discussion about, or questioning of, the onto-epistemological foundations of design and their appropriateness in the emerging context. This paper aims to support the service design discipline in its transition towards conceiving of and responding to systemic challenges as entangled phenomena. To do so, we draw on quantum mechanics, specifically a Baradian view, which centres on the notion of entanglement and enactment to understand and navigate the world. …

Detecting Tech-Driven Inequalities: A Service Design Framework, Qiling Long, Dan Mu, Kin Wai Michael Siu, Joseph R. Peissel

ServDes Conference Series

Technological growth is realizing an ever more intelligent and convenient future. But is this future equal, and what role does service design hold in addressing, or exacerbating, these inequalities? The relationship between technology and inequality is fluid, moving from the elimination of existing inequalities to the creation of new ones, and service design has the potential to impact this relationship. However, current literature to identify this potential is limited, with service design’s contribution to the technology-inequality-design nexus not clearly identified. This paper analyses the mutual relationship between technology, inequality, and service design, and proposes a novel framework incorporating four dimensions …

Local Particularities In Regional Social Innovation: A Case Study Of Rural Stay Program In Mungyeong, South Korea, Punyotai Thamjamrassri, Hoyong Kang, Yong-Ki Lee

ServDes Conference Series

Rural decline threatens sustainable development, leading to lower life quality and environmental degradation. To revitalize regional areas and address youth unemployment problems, the Korean government established a Youth Village program to attract young people to rural towns and set up new businesses. A rural town, Mungyeong, was chosen as a case study to investigate its rural stay program, motivations, and outcomes. Based on the report review and preliminary interview with the program organizer, we identify the program’s strengths, weaknesses, and critical success factors. The issues are then examined through a cultural lens to identify cultural and regional differences that may …

Tabletop Games For Training: Teaching Soft Skills To Game Development Students, Matthew Dyet

Staff Scholarship - Australia & Dubai

Among the key competencies for game development that tertiary education provides, soft skills are among the most challenging to coach students on. In an active learning environment the expectation is that soft skills such as communication, estimation, and prioritisation are gained through experience when students undertake group project work. While appropriately scaled projects may provide an opportunity to engage with soft skills in a meaningful way, this learning is often a lower priority to the student presented with more tangible project outcomes that they expect to be graded upon. Engaged and enthusiastic students may reflect upon how their experiences have …

Women's Work: The Sublime Is Now, Michelle Blackstone

MFA in Visual Arts Theses

What influences the lens through which we view art and the value we ascribe to it? This paper investigates the ways in which the historically gendered philosophy of “The Sublime,” a lack of institutional access, and traditionally gendered materials have acted as impediments for women in the arts. Discussion is given to the ways that masculine rhetoric in terms of “The Sublime” prevented women from attaining what was once considered the highest level of artistic achievement. Further attention is given to obstructions female artists face(d) in terms of gaining intuitional access within the art world. Finally, I examine the ways …

Architectural And Heritage Experience Through Playful Learning (An Interdisciplinary And Exploratory Action Research Focused On The Egyptian Context), Atheer Ahmed Salama

Theses and Dissertations

“The lack of awareness of the value of heritage and the lack of opportunities to engage in preserving and safeguarding heritage in the public sphere not only puts the heritage in risk of being irremediably lost. It also impoverishes the younger generation’s sense of identity and belonging within its respective socio-cultural continuum, and thus limits its ability to engage and contribute meaningfully to society at large” (UNESCO, 2021). With conducting this research, the researcher believes that heritage-themed analog games may carve the younger generation’s memory of heritage, allowing them to boost their sense of identity and belonging; thus, widening their …
