Hacknight #424 – Discovery and redesign on disability benefits with Jeff Maher

Date: Jan 02, 2024

Topic: Discovery and redesign on disability benefits

Just before the pandemic, the Canadian Digital Service (CDS) was helping Economic and Social Development Canadian (ESDC) put the Canadian Pension Plan Disability (CPP-D) application online. While COVID happened and that body of work was put on hold, the team used a few different approaches to change hearts, minds, and tech about delivering human centred technology. This is a quick talk about how the team used discovery and prototyping approaches to do that.

Speakers:

  • Jeff Maher – Jeff Maher is a civic tech nomad, having done stints with the Canadian Digital Service, US Digital Service, and US state teams as an engineer, product manager, and researcher.

Venue: Myhal Centre for Engineering and Entrepreneurship
