According to the EEA, sustainability
The quest for sustainability involves connecting what is known through scientific study to applications in pursuit of what people want for the future. There are several methods to measure the ecological footprint, ecological debt, carrying capacity, and sustainable yield of the human impacts on Earth. These are in the larger context of planetary boundaries. Other factors include environmental economics, social and
There are several factors to achieve social goal for people to co-exist on Earth over a long time. And it involves connecting what is known through scientific study to applications in pursuit of what people want for the future. Sustainability factors include, but is not limited to economics, social, and cultural issues: Economic Sustainability Economic sustainability involves
“The quest for sustainability involves connecting what is known through scientific study to applications in pursuit of what people want for the future.” – Lisa M.

Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is a framework to improve and optimize teaching and learning for all people based on scientific insights into how humans learn. It involves designing educational environments and products to be usable by the widest range of people without needing adaptation or specialized design. Here are some key principles and practices
Here are some key universal design principles focus specifically on the design and development of technology products, systems, and interfaces: Accessibility: Ensure that the technology is accessible to individuals with disabilities, including those with visual, auditory, motor, or cognitive impairments. This includes providing alternatives to visual and auditory information, support for assistive technologies, and ensuring compatibility
Universal Design (UD) is a design philosophy that aims to create products, environments, and systems that are usable by people of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds, to the greatest extent possible, without the need for adaptation or specialized design. The concept originated in architecture but has since expanded to various fields, including product design, communication,
Experience Design teams don’t just put a couple of nice new UI levels on top of applications. They design the application experience top to bottom for simplicity, mobility, and extensibility. Today, customers move across devices. Depending on the task that they need to do: a simple task that they can complete on their wearable or phone, a
