This year’s World Usability Day theme asks us to consider how things can be improved to create a better world for all. We have come a long way as a society, yet we still face fundamental human challenges such as war, poverty, climate change, renewable energy, and social justice. Designers can play a critical role in addressing these challenges by creating solutions that seek to improve the human condition and make the world more just.or 2024, The World Usability Design Challenge continues to call on the design community to share evidence of specific impacts of insights from user research and evaluation on detailed design decisions.
A focus on users in design is primarily supported through research into target usage contexts and evaluation of designs in use. For 2024, we seek submissions to the WUI DC that showcase excellent user-focused design that addresses the theme of Designing for a Better World. Submitted Design Challenge entries will present evidence of user research and evaluation that had a clear and valuable impact on interaction, product and/or service design recommendations and decisions. Such evidence should let the general public (including UN decision-makers) ‘get it’ by demonstrating connections between research, evaluation, and worthwhile design outcomes.
