違いを正すのではなく、
それらから何を学ぶことができるのか？

Group Overview

What is positive deviance?

Keyboard, conversational agents, electric toothbrushes, kaleidoscopes, GPS technology and coutless more inventions were developed for (and often by) inventors and users from marginal communities like people with disabilities, LGBTQ+ members, or people from racial minorities. Yet these technologies changed the world for everyone.

Team Positive Deviance focuses on exploring the unique skills of people from marginalised groups and create technologies that empower them to make use of their unique experiences and share them with others.
