Diversity, Equity, and Inclusivity in Digital Products: The Responsibility of Product Designers

Designing for inclusion means considering and including the needs of all people who will use a product, such as providing clear instructions, removing barriers that prevent use, and adapting interfaces for people with disabilities. Inclusive design can benefit not only those with disabilities, but also the entire population, as it can improve financial literacy and lead to more efficient use of resources.

Product designers can make their products more inclusive by thoroughly understanding all potential users, including people with disabilities in the design process, being flexible in building the product, and seeking help when needed.
