Notes
As this is a casual conversation, participants talk about their work, introduce their projects and update the community. In this case, a participant shares about their research work for Outline, as they are working on a final article to publish soon. They say that we already did a preliminary talk regarding the topic they are working on in one of our VPN Village 2023 session.
We talked about the things that made this participat focus on UX design, like the projects available to work in their home country, and questioning the role of the designer, that opened them to a new set of ideas about tech, society and their role in it.
For starting their carrier, they got accepted in one of the Tor Browser small research grant.
