@alx@mastodon.designHello #Designers, I'm currently working on a #codesign activity, and I am aggregating tools and toolkit that open and available for #researchers and #policymakers. There are quite a lot of them, and that got me curious:
for those of view running #design #workshops in #participatory, #inclusive, and #social contexts, which #tools and #toolkit do you use/recommend?
A collection that I particularly like is The Danish Design Centre's, which has a dedicated page clearly separating #tools and #toolkits with a good focus on #methods
https://ddc.dk/tools-and-methods/
For those more on #cocreation, the Crafts Council UK has some guidelines which I haven't used yet, but can be of interest for working on collaborative programmes within #creative #communities

For fans of digital boards, I just found this collection of #Miro toolkits https://miro.com/miroverse/ux-and-design/
I'm collecting suggestions and findings here:

I'm updating it as I go, so this thread remains open for suggestions. If anyone knows also about tools/toolkits that go beyond visuals (for example that can be used with deaf people), or in languages beyond English, feel free to share, I'll add it to the list.
@alx there is a lot to explore in this DIY toolkit from Nesta; I haven't used them yet though https://www.nesta.org.uk/toolkit/diy-toolkit/
@alx and similarly the design kit from Ideo: https://www.designkit.org/methods
I don't have feedback to give on using them, but I will be following with interest the answers to your question!
@coralie good morning, thank you for sharing it. Nesta's toolkit is one of the most shared, and my supervisor also advised it at the beginning of my research. I have it on my list, and I used their personas toolkit, but strangely in the definition of the theoretical approach, and not during the activity itself
@alx oh wow; ok I didn't explore well all the potential of the tool!
