Human Centered Design toolkit
In collaboration with Gates Foundation and IDE, IDEO created a Human Centered Design toolkit. This resource was created to help organizations working with smallholder farmers better understand the needs of the farmers and design appropriate tools, technologies, programs, or services for and with them.
Please feel free to download the toolkit and share your comments about it here.

[Loband: Embedded Object Removed - http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?docId=6411905727447752181&hl=en-CA]
Gary Marsden, Google Tech Talks May 4, 2007
"Using Case studies and examples, this talk looks at the challenges of applying standard HCI techniques in a developing world context. We look at how HCI can have a fantastic impact on communities in the developing world, but there is still some way to go in understanding how HCI can best benefit the developing world."
