succeeds?
Traditional approach
that is methodical, rigorous, cautious, avoids risk, invest
significantly early on, works behind closed doors then potentially fails in front of millions
of people?

Our design process draws on theory and tools from areas including:
Understanding and designing
dynamics at the system level
Empowering all individuals in the
system to co-design solutions
Ideating and innovating to push boundaries of what might be possible
Understanding and influencing
motivations and behaviours that drive
change
Chaos and Complexity

How to amplify value within existing behaviour?
Communities are already forming financial support groups & are more resilient because of them.
We wanted to amplify this behaviour, which is more advanced than in Western culture.
Resilience comes from being ‘indebted’ to others in your community.
Resilience is perceived to come from being financially independent.

Learn by playing games with your users
Here we designed a bespoke game to facilitate our research. This game helped us appreciate how rural Kenyan women make decisions about spending and contributing to a fundraiser. Our insight was that reciprocity was the main driver behind decisions, not altruism. These donations were only given in high-trust relationships.
Users are the best designers.
Giving women in rural Kisii prototyping materials to build their ideal SMS fundraising product. Here, two mothers are designing a product which allows them to contribute non-monetary items (such as goats or food) to support a fundraiser when they have no financial support to offer.
Sometimes ‘smart’ looks ‘dumb’
In this work, we discovered how technology does not necessarily need to supplant existing norms and mechanisms, but it can actually amplify existing behaviours which are already effective and culturally meaningful for people.

“The supervisors say we are not working, that we are lazy and incompetent, but we are trying our best – a congratulations sometimes or a you have done well would go a long way.”
“Our supervisors call us names, even to our faces, and this really hurts us.”
“My pay is three months late, it is already low enough, why can’t they at least pay it on time?”

The supervisors now see that this is what you have
planned for the day and you have carried it out. So they really see that in fact we are doing our work. But at first,
