For Visual Diary #4, another service that helps the disabled are the inclusive playgrounds that Singapore has been establishing around their country. From a TedTalk on May 24th, 2018, "To design better tech, understand context (TEDGlobal2017),” it was emphasized that as designers, we need to engage ourselves and immerse ourselves in the environment of those in the audience in order to really understand what they need, and those who designed this playground and work with these kids have done so to understand how to make such a playground exist and work for these kids to use and play with. Additionally, in Nelson and Stolterman’s book, “The Design Way : Intentional Change in an Unpredictable World - Foundations and Fundamentals of Design Competence,” it states how “design ideally is about service on behalf of the other -- not merely about changing someone's behavior for their own good or convincing them to buy products and services” (page 41). I think this inclusive playground does a great job painting how the designer built this service on behalf of these disabled kids and now allows them to develop equal relationships with other kids and those who help them through such platform.

Speakers share Tough Truths for Africa in #TEDGlobal2017 Session 4 – A Hard Look
“Africa does not have a water crisis; it has a knowledge crisis regarding its water, where and what type it is, how it can be tapped and made available where and when needed to all and sundry,” said Olufemi Taiwo, a professor of African political thought. “We must find a way to make knowledge and its production sexy and rewarding. Rewarding not in the crass sense of money-making but in terms of…
