Hi and welcome to another episode of 'This is HCD' coming to you from Brooklyn, New York. I am your host Chirryl-Lee Ryan and in this episode I'm speaking to Adam Fivenson, a user researcher and self-described 'non-designer' of new technologies for civic engagement.

Adam works at DAI, an international development company who tackle fundamental social and economic development challenges caused by inefficient markets, ineffective governance and instability.

Adam has worked on projects around the world from Thailand to Sri Lanka, Ethiopia to Colombia and Indonesia to Cambodia. Right now Adam is working on a project in Guatemala.
