This unit focuses on translating inclusive and equitable design principles into organizational practice by addressing access barriers, ethical power dynamics, business justification, implementation steps, and metrics for impact. Students will learn to build measurable business cases, plan scalable interventions (local and global), and anticipate challenges to prepare for a culminating execution project in the final unit.
Learning Objectives
- Analyze barriers to access and power dynamics in underserved communities and document ethical implications using case examples
- Apply equitable design implementation steps to develop a practical project plan with roles, timelines, and stakeholder engagement strategies
- Demonstrate the ability to construct a business case that quantifies costs, benefits, and return-on-investment using at least three practical metrics
- Evaluate scaling and replication strategies (local vs. global) and propose adaptive measures and metrics to monitor impact and sustain change
