The document proposes solutions to address discriminatory educational systems. It discusses two main ideas: 1) Removing names from resumes so jobs are evaluated based only on merits and qualifications rather than background. Testing found this could still allow deducing social groups from universities. 2) Raising societal awareness of discrimination through widespread messaging to make people more empathic. Testing found this could be effective long-term if the messaging campaign targets all ages and is sustained long-term. The document reports back on initial testing of these ideas with one person and discusses improving the solutions.

1. Problem Statement
Discriminatory educational system that do not
allow people grow and get good job positions
because they were not born in influential
spheres, and they do not have access to
influential people.

2. Chosen Ideas
Idea N° 42
Creating a system where when they receive “resumes” it
will have no name on it. (maybe a number?).
MIXED Ideas N° 28 + N° 33
Make the consumer aware of the situation and stimulate them to buy
products just from the empathic companies.
+
Create special programs for Universities with influences to make their
students aware and empathic with other realities.
=
Make the society aware of the situation through
messages that will make them more empathic with
other realities.

3. Prototypes… IDEA 42

4. MIXED Ideas N° 28 + N° 33

5. Testing it
Tested in:
Same person that I interviewed the
first time.

6. Testing the first Idea: Resume
- I would work at first because the
employee will see just your merits
and not your name (that can be
related to a special social group).
- It can work too because there will
be just info about your work and
studies.
Maybe the employee would be able to
deduce from what college the person is
and therefore to what social group the
person is from. Probably there must be
a way to hide this.
Is it possible to hide the University that
the person is from, so there is no option
to deduce the social enviroment that
the person belongs?

7. Testing the first Idea: Social Message
- It would work because it is a
strong message to the society, and
if it is everywhere the people can
be aware of what is to discriminate.
But the results will not be in a short
time, will be long term.
The messages needs to create
awareness in all ages and spheres in
society, from childhood to old age.
How long we will be able to see results? The message needs to be long term as
well. And the creators need to have this
in mind.
