SUX like »It SUCKS what happens right now.«? Yes!

What is SUX?

SUX was founded 2021 by a group of designers led by Thorsten Jonas with the idea to develop a playbook,

to drive 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.

"Making Sustainability Default in all Design Processes" is our mission.

SUX Podcast

EP 08: "WUD and a Usability Revolution" with Elizabeth Rosenzweig

01/11/2023        Moderators: Bavo Lodewyckx, Thorsten Jonas

In this episode we were joined by Elizabeth Rosenzweig, the founder and director of the World Usability Day. We spoke about how World Usability Day started, why it has a strong relation with Sustainability from the very beginning and what its relation to World Earth Day is.

And why hiking? When you go hiking in the wilderness there is one important rule: leave no trace. The question is, how do we design to leave no trace, to cause no more harm?
