Molly Watt shares lived experience relying on technology to stay independent while living with Usher Syndrome. She reframes accessibility and inclusive design beyond disability-only thinking, arguing that designing for inclusion benefits everyone and that tech and UX choices shape daily participation in society.

Inclusive DesignInclusive design identifies who an experience excludes and involves people with different abilities and perspectives in shaping it. Start by examining assumptions and mismatches between a person and the product or environment. Work with people who experience those barriers, then explore solutions that address their needs and may benefit others. Use this approach throughout product and service development, including decisions about interaction, communication and participation. Revisit whose perspectives are missing as the design evolves.
