SydDT #124: IWD. Building Positive Change in Our Workplaces & Society
Two design leaders share how they're using design thinking to drive real change around safety and equity, plus a panel on this year's IWD theme with the Sydney design community.
Emma Carter and Catherine Fitzpatrick deliver talks on their work advancing positive change in workplaces and society, followed by a panel discussion led by Kate Ingram exploring the International Women's Day theme "Balance the Scales." The event celebrates female design leaders and examines how design can drive safety, equity, and systemic change across organisations and industries. This collaborative meetup brings together the design thinking community with participants from Design Connection, CCX, and EUX meetups to inspire action on design leadership's transformative potential.
