I advocate, in everything I do, for excellence in design that enables people of all abilities to experience comfort, control, confidence, and engagement in museum exhibitions, public programs and workplaces.

Jan Majewski joined the Institute for Human Centered Design (IHCD) to enrich her love for museums and her advocacy for making them more inclusive. Brainstorming and problem solving with museum professionals across the globe, she collaborates with clients to ensure their museums, exhibitions, programs, and policies provide people on the spectrum of ability and age, of all personal identities, an equal opportunity for engagement and participation. Learning deeply from user/experts who have lived experience with disabilities, Jan helps share their expertise in museums through user testing, co-design, and training.

Ask me about

When in the design process should one start to address issues of accessible and inclusive design?

Best piece of advice I've ever heard

Don’t give up on advocating for accessible and inclusive design. Design that works better for people with disabilities generally works better for everyone.
