Hello fellow design-interested Wikimanians, tonight we'll have the *first design meetup* <https://wikimania2018.wikimedia.org/wiki/Participatory_Design_Meetup> for anyone who is interested in, or does design on their wiki, to have a space to talk to people doing similar things (differently), exchange on resources, ask questions etc.
*Let's finally connect and learn from each other!* We're meeting tonight at *7pm in room London* to talk all things design and usability. Don't forget to sign up if you're interested! *About the event:* *Design happens, whether a designer is present or not.* We want to talk about how design is handled in your community, and how we can support each other to build a sustainable infrastructure to enable meaningful design contributions. The software development structures have been around for a long time and work fairly well, but there is no such thing for design and other non-code contributions. Let's explore the design needs of the communities and work towards creating a space for mutual learning as well as a shared understanding of it. Especially because everyone has their own expertise it would be beneficial for anyone, designers, editors, developers... to learn from each other in a sustainable way by documenting workflows, methodologies, sharing tools etc. This all ties in with participatory design <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Participatory_design> and it would be great to share what kinds of methods you have tried in your communities and generally exchange on our experiences and ideas. Best Charlie
