What are Local Groups?
Local Groups will expand your career network—whether you are interested in learning new skills, finding job opportunities or looking for a new employee.
A Local Group is a group of people who, like you, are passionate about design. Local Groups organize meetings to get inspired, have fun and learn from one another.

Meetup Details

Accessibility is not only a design trend of 2021 but also a topic worth discussing. What does accessibility mean to us on the African continent?

Join Karabo Ngoatle, Design Director at Nihilent, as he ignites the conversation on accessibility in emerging markets - what is it, what can we learn from it and what impact it can have. This will also be our very first IxDF Cape Town & IxDF Gauteng collaborative meetup - we are keen to see you all there and collaborate across the nation.

Also, join us two weeks later for the Accessibility in emerging markets Lean Coffee, where you will have the chance to collaborate and solve a real-life accessibility issue with Zoom breakout rooms and our usual Miro board! See you there!

Quick question about the time for this event. It comes up as 7am to 8.30 am for me (I’m in Cape Town) is that really the time for the event??

Lydia Dodge

Hi Mary! I’m in Cape Town too, I logged on to attend now but the Zoom event seems to suggest it starts at 7PM, I’m not 100% sure though.

Mandla Shonhiwa

Hi Mary and Lydia,

I hope this finds you both well. Sorry for the mix up; it’s at 7pm tonight.

Kind regards,

Please log in or join us to post comments in the conversation.

Meetup attendees

Members can show their interest to attend a meetup by clicking “Attend this meetup” button. In addition, since Local Groups events are open to all, non-members can also attend these meetups.

Members might be bringing their non-member friends to a Local Group meetup (and you’re welcome to do the same), but their non-member friends will not be shown as “attending” because this feature is only available to members.

P.S.: Note that the number of attendees is not an indication of its value! Small meetups work perfectly, and can facilitate deeper, more fruitful conversations.
