The Fifth Space in 5 episodes

Meet the Fifth Space Fellows, 27 staff drawn from across three largest disability agencies in British Columbia, Canada, to do ground-up Research & Development using 20% of their paid work time.

Wendy and Sherri, two staff from Simon Fraser Society for Community Living and PosAbilities, went out to do ethnographic research to understand the issue around living and housing for people with cognitive disability.

The teams came back from their ethnographic research and tried to make sense of the stories they heard and their observations at people’s homes, day programs, group homes, and offices. They did a first try on doing segmentation.

Teams came up with ideas they want to prototype. Hear about what they think should go forward and what should not, and why.

Watch how nTandem team prototyped their idea “Speed Friending” and what they learned from it.
