We’re sharing some of our favorite episodes from the past year. Enjoy today's episode and stay safe.
The next time you do a Google search… consider this. Nearly seventy-percent of the world’s websites do not meet basic accessibility criteria. That means millions of people with disabilities can’t access the internet.
Kat Holmes is tackling this issue head on. She is Google’s Director of User Experience, and also author of the book “Mismatch – How Inclusion Shapes Design.”
Holmes took the stage at Fortune’s Brainstorm Design conference in March 2019 to explain her unique approach to the topic.
KAT HOLMES SOT @ :40 “The word inclusion means many different things to many different people. :44 And I was invited to write a book on this topic and in doing so had to examine whether or not I really understood what the word meant. :51 And in doing that I looked at the root word – which is (CLAW-dare), which is Latin for to shut. :56 So exclude is literally to shut out and include is to shut in 1:01 And I started to wonder maybe there is something about this mental model of being shut in and shut out, that was even limiting the way we think about inclusion and solutions associated with it. 1:11 //
2:25 Now the moment this started to unlock my thinking about this shut in shut out model is when I read world health organization’s definition of disability. Which in 2001 was dramatically redefined as a mismatched interaction between the features of a person’s body and the features of the environment in which they live. 2:42
2:43 And this shift in thinking from disability as a personal health condition to a mismatched interaction, clearly placed responsibility on me and my colleagues to examine each of our choices as we were building solutions, 2:53 to see how they were either increasing or decreasing those mismatches for people.” 2:57
Holmes cited an example of a public toilet that requires you to wave your hand over a sensor in order to flush. A great innovation for most, but a “mismatch” for anyone who is blind, cannot read the language or doesn’t have a hand to wave.
In a world where the words “diversity” and “inclusion” have become part of the corporate vernacular – Holmes said companies need to extend their focus into the design process too.
KAT HOLMES SOT @ 11:31 “So I think about that in all of the spaces and places that we create, 11:33 and the businesses that we lead and the kinds of solutions that we put out in the world 11:36 And people often ask me ‘Where do I start with inclusive design?’ 11:39 // 11:46 The key is to start recognizing the different types of exclusion that show up… // 11:51 then asking ourselves who experiences the highest degree of that exclusion, and bringing them right into the heart of the design process, 11:59 as people who participate in creating those solutions. 12:01 //11:12 It doesn’t mean that you’re designing one thing for all people, it means you’re designing a diversity of ways that people can participate in an experience with a shared sense of belonging.” 11:21

The Ebola epidemic happened in 20-14. The first F-D-A approved VACCINE for Ebola was just released last December – five years later. The Zika virus spread across the world in 20-15. Today, there is STILL no vaccine for that deadly disease. Now – there’s COVID-19. And companies all over the world are racing to create a viable vaccine ... Something experts say could take up to eighteen months.
Even though the U-S has not yet reached its peak number of COVID-19 cases – experts are already wondering if this virus will return each year, like the flu. Because COVID-19 is an entirely NEW virus – no one has ever had it and therefore 100-percent of the world’s population is at risk of catching it. That makes the search for a vaccine even more pressing.
Over the years, Fortune has welcomed all kinds of leaders to the conference stage to talk about all kinds of global issues. In 20-17, Fortune hosted a Brainstorm Health event – right on the heels of the Ebola epidemic. Doctor Nahid Bhadelia (nah-HEED bah-DEEL-yuh) spoke at that conference. She’s an infectious disease physician from Boston University’s School of Medicine.
As the deadly COVID-19 virus spreads rapidly across the globe, the world is desperate for information and insight. Fortune is hoping to provide some of those insights through past interviews with leading health experts. Peter Sands is the executive director of the Global Fund - an organization created to fight three of our deadliest infectious diseases: malaria, tuberculosis and H-I-V – AIDS. These three diseases kill more than two-million people each year.
The COVID-19 crisis has shed light on some of the holes within America’s healthcare system - from the lack of sick pay, to the high cost of care. But even before this pandemic, the American system stirred plenty of debate. Doctor Freda Lewis-Hall is an executive vice president of Pfizer – one of the world’s biggest pharma companies.
In December 20-13, a two-year-old boy in West Africa died after becoming sick with a fever, vomiting and diarrhea. By January – that same sickness had killed three more members of his family. It wasn’t until March – three months later – that the mysterious disease was identified as Ebola. But by then – it had already spread. Over the next two years, Ebola would kill more than 11-thousand people and cost billions of dollars. Doctor Raj Panjabi was there.
Scientists and companies are racing to find a vaccine to fight back COVID-19. Unfortunately, scrambling for the right tools to fight a dangerous disease is not a NEW problem – it surfaces with each global outbreak. In 2-thousand-and-nine, the world was hit with H-one-N-one – better known as the swine flu. In one year, that virus killed more than 12-thousand people in the U-S.
Whether it’s social media, news stations or the neighbor next door – the flood of incoming information about the coronavirus is overwhelming. So Fortune thought it would provide some perspective from the world’s leading doctors and experts. Doctor Michael Osterholm is the Director of the University of Minnesota’s Center for Infectious Disease.
Outbreaks and pandemics have been happening since the beginning of time. From the Spanish Flu of 19-18 to the H-one-N-one swine flu in 2-thousand-and-nine. But now it’s 20-20 – and the world is suffering through another infectious disease crisis. So what lessons have we learned from past outbreaks? Fortune dug into its archives to find answers from those who have lived on the frontlines of these pandemics. Doctors like Nahid Bhadelia (nah-HEED bah-DEEL-yuh).
