Moa Bogren & Jens Wedin @Studio Manfred
Critical Design from Theory to Practice

The more dependent we get on technology, and the more impact design and product decisions have on our everyday life, the more important it gets that we have methods to calculate and explore future risks with these decisions. Because it impacts us not only as individuals but as a society and our planet.


Moa Bogren has over ten years of experience working with product and tech in roles such as Customer and user Research, UX and Data in a wide variety of different fields and organisations. 



Jens Wedin has 24 years of experience in design, research, and leadership. Jens is the co-founder and CEO of Studio Manfred and co-founded State of Design and Design Leadership Community in Sweden.

Decision Making Unravelled

Sources suggest that the average person makes 35,000 choices per day. Some of them we make without thinking, and some are more complex that require mental processes. So how often do we reflect on how we make decisions, individually or in a group? How well do we know our preferences, and how effectively do we communicate those? We'll try out different tools to foster easier and better decision making both in our personal and professional lives.


Burcu Arsoy is a multi-disciplinary designer with over 15 years of experience in various design disciplines. In the last 10 years, she focused mainly on Service and UX Design. Her responsibilities have evolved over time into design leadership.

Vaida Pakulyte is a UX researcher and designer. She has worked in IOT, Fintech, E-commerce and believes that products and services must add value to people’s lives and society. Creating an intuitive and user-focused product or service is easier said than done, but aiming towards that and contributing to user wellbeing is what motivates her daily design decisions. Vaida is also passionate about personal leadership and making unique perspectives visible through mentoring in the design field.

Sustainable User Journey Mapping

Let’s get practical! In this interactive session, you’ll work in small groups to practice sustainable user journey mapping. We'll provide the user journey framework, and you’ll brainstorm and sketch ideas to enhance sustainability in your projects. You’ll learn how to integrate sustainability into user journey mapping, consider sustainability holistically using the UN Sustainable Development Goals, and extend your positive impact as a designer. Additionally, your group will refine an idea and pitch it to the plenary, practicing how to effectively “sell” sustainability initiatives to stakeholders.
