The Ethical Design Lab is part of the Institute for Technology and Humanity at the University of Cambridge. We do mixed methods participatory research that translates to policy and practice so we can improve how technologies are designed to better serve human wellbeing. This includes research on digital wellbeing, front-end ethics, community-driven design futures, and multi-dimensional digital health.
