Antiracist by Design is Better By Design (Episode 98)
Crystal Hall, Associate Professor at the University of Washington’s Evans School of Public Policy & Governance.
Drawing on her book Antiracist by Design, Crystal Hall shares an updated model for working on behavioural science projects. The model emphasizes actively and collaboratively planning and managing projects so that they involve the right people, ask the right questions, identify the correct problems, iteratively design fitting solutions, measure for differential impacts for different groups and downstream consequences, and share results through multiple channels.
