GIRL DESIGN
step 1. found her
what is her age?
does she lives in a rural environment?
what is the structure of her family?
develop a profile of your girl
so others can have a clear understanding of who are you trying to serve
develop a plan to learn from the experience of these girls - know their reality
it can be useful to gather different perspectives on the same problem
the girl
the expert
the influencers
the extremes
step 2. listen to her
articulate the problem you want to solve
make sure you're focused on the problem itself without assuming solutions first
frame your design challenge: it should narrow into a more specific question that you can work to solve
always a question - allows the generation of possible ideas
explore how your design will affect her
What are you trying to get her to think, see, feel or do as a result of this project?
question your assumptions
Even if you don’t feel that your assumptions influenced the framing of your design challenge, it is important to write them down and be aware of them
examine the scope of your challenge
A well-defined challenge should be broad enough to explore the unexpected but narrow enough to be manageable to tackle
what a good design question looks like?
A. Is the question focused on ultimate impact?
B. Does the question allow for a variety of solutions?
C. Does the question take into account context and constraints?
ensure the challenge has one objective
Most social problems are complex and intricate with various different causes
focus on the objective that you think may be the root cause or the most important for solving the problem
