As a UX Designer, you can help make the Web and the World a better place. By following a human-centred design approach, you have the capability to make life easier for all users. From those with disabilities, the elderly, global audiences, and the next billion people who will be joining the internet. The way interfaces are designed even impacts users' health. Our field is not merely about designing beautiful buttons or chasing conversion rates. UX Design is also for the common good.

Guest speaker : Børge Kristensen (Visiting Johannesburg from Copenhagen - he will be here in person, not via zoom)

Børge Kristensen is a UX Consultant from Copenhagen, Denmark. He has worked in the Internet industry since the last century and has been consulting - making websites useful and usable for more than a decade.

By insisting on a Human-Centred Design process and continuous feedback from users, Copenux - (the agency he founded) - has created websites with task completion rates at 100 %.

Meet-up attendees

Members can show their interest to attend a meet-up by clicking “Attend this meet-up” button. In addition, since Local Groups events are open to all, non-members can also attend these meet-ups.

Members might be bringing their non-member friends to a Local Group meet-up (and you’re welcome to do the same), but their non-member friends will not be shown as “attending” because this feature is only available to members.

P.S.: Note that the number of attendees is not an indication of its value! Small meet-ups work perfectly, and can facilitate deeper, more fruitful conversations.
