Frank Long 'Designing a Design Culture to empower richer social outcomes'

Hello and welcome to another episode of this is HCD. My name is Gerry scullion and I'm a service design principal based in Ireland. In this episode, we caught up with Frank Long, one of Ireland's UX forefathers. Frank mentored me way back in the nineties and shortly after he began working in the usability and accessibility space for Frontend, one of Europe's oldest UX consultancies. A number of years ago when I was living in Sydney, I began to see Frontend winning awards, left right and center, such as at the iXDA awards in America, then again in Lyon and UX Awards and so on, beating some stiff competition to some of the biggest design awards in the design world. Now I wanted to go and dig a little deeper to understand what they were doing internally and how they were doing it and turns out they created an initiative called DesignFix.
