Reflections

This project was under the topic of hidden disability. Out of the concern for women's rights, we chose endometriosis to reveal the hidden pain for women. I found the power of teamwork from this project. We were six females of enthusiasm to complete the female project. We brainstorms together and evaluate to choose the best idea. I mainly did the research and service design. We have also considered the business feasibility to turn Bendo into a community that encourage all the women speak for their hidden difficulty in the workplace. However, the limitation of this project is lacking first-hand user research. It encourages me to take part in more women-related design project.
