Human-Centered Design holds the belief that all problems, even those seemingly intractable like poverty, gender equality, and clean water, are solvable and that the people facing the problems are closest to understanding how to solve them.
Collaborative Work Groups will be facilitated through a collaborative framework process such as Human-Centered Design to co-learn, co-design and assess feasibility of solutions (to be implemented in Phase Two) on a specific topic area related to breast and/or lung cancer. Human-Centered Design evolves from the work of social innovators who maintain the belief that all problems, even those seemingly intractable like poverty, gender equality, and clean water, are solvable. This model proposes that people facing the problems are closest to understanding how to solve them and engaging diverse groups to conceive and create innovative new solutions.
This process provides an approach to design with communities, to deeply understand people and their situation, and to dream up ideas and create innovative new solutions rooted in their actual needs. It is iterative, not linear, and moves through three phases: 1) Learn, 2) Design, and 3) Create. The Human-Centered Design framework will allow groups to gain a deep and transdisciplinary understanding of a specific topic related to cancer disparities (environment, tobacco use, stress, healthcare access and quality) and then develop and implement an integrated action plan to impact this root cause and lead to a reduction in disparities.
The follow are resources to support the planning and implementation of the Collaborative Workgroups.
