Integrating Gender into Design Thinking

  • Gender-Inclusive Problem Framing: Problem framing involves defining the problem or challenge that an organization is trying to address. A gender-inclusive approach to problem framing involves considering how gender dynamics may contribute to or exacerbate the problem. For example, a social impact organization working on access to education may consider how gender norms and stereotypes affect girls' access to schooling.

  • Gender-Sensitive Ideation Techniques: Ideation techniques are methods used to generate ideas and solutions. Gender-sensitive ideation techniques involve actively seeking input from diverse gender groups and ensuring that their perspectives are represented in the ideation process. This may include conducting gender-segregated ideation sessions or using participatory methods to engage marginalized gender groups.

  • Co-Design with Diverse Gender Perspectives: Co-design involves collaborating with end-users and stakeholders to develop solutions that meet their needs. Co-designing with diverse gender perspectives ensures that solutions are inclusive and responsive to the needs of all gender groups. This may involve conducting gender-segregated co-design workshops or using gender-sensitive participatory design methods.
