4.8 Working With Bias

Mahrukh 'Maya' Hasan is as a designer, researcher and strategic advisor who helps social impact organizations build joyful, equitable and innovative teams. She's the Founder and Director of Azura Labs, a social design and research studio that builds the capacity of international NGOs and UN agencies serving communities in Sub Saharan Africa and South and Southeast Asia. Last March, Maya also founded the Fearless Project, a diversity, equity and inclusion firm, which aims to champion trust, belonging and joy in the social impact sector.
We speak about:

• entry barriers in the sector
• research ethics and design justice
• moving beyond the binary of quantitative and qualitative data
• diversity, equity and inclusion work
• the culture of fear amongst leaders
• emotional agility
• learning from other sectors - and much more!

She joins us from Chiang Mai, Thailand.
