UX Landscape of South Africa
Last year, Dr. Marco Pretorius, Terence and myself embarked on researching and baselining the maturity of UX in South Africa. It was a huge effort but I think it turned out really well. As part of the project we created the report, published an academic version of the findings, created a website – www.uxlandscape.com – and have also presented the findings (youtube link) at the UX SA Conference 2015 in Cape Town. The contents of the report include:
- About the study
- Executive summary
- Methodology
- Findings
- Part 1: Demographics
- Part 2: UX Practitioners
- Part 3: Institutional UX
- Part 4: Education and knowledge building
- Conclusion and recommendations
- Next steps
Our intention is now to run this every two years so as to meaningfully contribute to the growth of the field here in SA.
