Why This Matters Now
Tech-First Design Crisis
AI systems deployed with no human factors research—interfaces optimized for engagement, not wellbeing.
Accessibility Emergency
98% of websites fail basic accessibility standards—new AI tools exclude billions from economic participation.
Diminished Agency
Black-box AI decisions remove human control—algorithmic recommendations replace autonomous choice.
Scale Without Humanity
Platforms prioritize metrics over meaning—billions served, zero understanding of human needs.
Our Focus Areas
- Human-AI Interaction Design — Interface patterns restoring control, clarity, and dignity
- Universal Accessibility — AI tools usable by people with diverse cognitive and physical abilities
- Participatory Co-Design — Communities as collaborators, not data sources or consumers
- Cognitive Ergonomics — Systems aligned with human attention, memory, and decision-making
- Cultural Sensitivity — Design respecting diverse values, norms, and contexts globally
- Ethical Experience Design — Interfaces promoting autonomy over manipulation
- Wellbeing-Centered Metrics — Success measured by human flourishing, not engagement time
Current Initiatives
