Explore. Ask. Shape the Future of Inclusive,
Humanity-Centered Design Knowledge Sharing
DNDA26 Award Guidelines
Still learning, still growing — and shaped by your feedback.
What kinds of questions can I ask?
Ask any question about DNDA, its goals, the contests and recognition, and the Summits. Ask about humanity-centered design (HCD+), Ask about DNDA or Don Norman. If you stray from these top[ics, Anusha may not be effective.
What use it now?
Because it’s still in progress—and your input
matters.
Anusha is not a finished product. Some answers may be slow or incomplete, and that’s okay. This is your opportunity to shape its evolution. Think of Anusha as a living conversation. Every question you ask, every piece of feedback you leave, helps us build a better, more inclusive assistant for the DNDA community and beyond.
What’s the goal?
To make Anusha’s knowledge—its people, ideas, and events—more accessible, equitable, and collaborative.
We envision Anusha as a bridge: between people and ideas, between continents and communities. A space where knowledge flows across disciplines and boundaries. Whether you’re a student in Brazil, a changemaker in Ghana, or an educator in California—this assistant is for you.
How You Can Provide Feedback
After each answer, you’ll see a thumbs up/down option. Clicking it opens a quick feedback window. We’re especially eager to learn:
- How clearly Anusha answered your question
- Whether it helped you take the next step or think in a new direction
- If anything felt unclear, missing, or could be improved
Your feedback doesn’t just go into a box—it
becomes part of how this assistant grows.
A Few Things to Keep in Mind
Anusha is built to provide verified, trusted information. This means every answer goes through an extra step of internal validation—so while it may take a few seconds longer to respond, it’s working hard to ensure the information you receive is accurate and aligned with our values.
That said, it won’t always get things right all the time. It is, after all, AI, so like all LLMs, it can give answers that are wrong. So, cross-check. And that’s where you come in: if something feels off, let us know. Flag the answer, leave a note, and your voice will directly shape how the assistant improves.
Disclaimer
Anusha is currently still evolving and can make mistakes. Some responses may be incomplete, slow to load, or inaccurate. Your feedback helps us improve. No personal data is stored. Your interactions are used only to enhance performance and learning.
Naming our AI, Anusha.
We named our AI “Anusha,” a Sanskrit name meaning “the first ray of the sun.” This beautifully captures the spirit of HCD+.
Just as the dawn’s first light illuminates the world, bringing clarity and signaling a new beginning, HCD+ seeks to shine a light on the complex, real-world needs of all humanity—especially communities often left in the shadows. Anusha is designed to be that first ray for you: a clear, accessible guide to the DNDA’s mission, our laureates, and the future of truly humanity-centered design.
