What is SUX?
SUX was founded 2021 by a group of designers led by Thorsten Jonas with the idea to develop a playbook.
For driving sustainability in UX and through UX, based on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the UN and non-profit - for the community and with the community. Meanwhile SUX grew from a project to an ongoing initiative and global community of (UX-)designers from all over the world.
We realized, that working on Sustainability and Sustainable UX cannot be just one project. Instead it is an ongoing way that maybe never ends. But we also see, that it is worth going it. Because we have the power and can be an impact- in our daily work and through it.

For this episode we had the honor to welcome one of the icons of the ethical design movement: the inspiring Trine Falbe from Denmark, well known for her ongoing work for ethical design, for her books „White hat UX“ as well as „The Ethical Design Handbook“ and for her Ethical Design Network Community.
We talked about Trines way and why Ethical Design and Sustainability directly belong together. We dived deeper into the necessity of Ethical Design, its principles and how YOU can achieve ethical design in your daily work.
