Introducing: Prosocial Design — Looking For Interested Members to Join Our Slack

Central Events & meetups

Hi all,

Over the Thanksgiving Break, and friend of mine and I decided to launch ‘Prosocial Design’. We’re taking behavioral studies on prosocial behaviors and translating those into user interface elements and user experiences that nudge users to exhibit more prosocial behaviors. The link to joining our Slack Channel is here:

So far, we have a handful of experts on our Slack channel, and are looking to grow our numbers further. If you’re interested, especially if you have UX, UI, or behavioral science experience, let me know in the comments and I’ll get back to each of you with a personal invite link.

Thanks!

Hi John,
I’m not a UI/UX designer, but I’m working on a ’prosocial’ project right now. No idea if it’s going to have a long way because my contract is going to finish next summer and, more than else, at this stage, I’m supposed to conceive a plan to change public opinion on a highly valuable social form of structured cooperation. If you think this could be a good experience to share, so yes I would be happy to join you.
Thank you
Giovanni

I just found this forum and my [unfunded] humane tech company is looking for a UI/UX design lead to join our team of 4 talented and experienced founders disrupting social media outside the standard VC track.

I know this post is 2 years old, and the Slack link no longer works, but if anyone sees this and is intrigued please find us on PublicSpaces.io or Plug.events

We are open to many other kinds of contribution too, especially PR and communications.
