About Nikol Chen

Hello! I am a multidisciplinary designer and have been with the Laidlaw Foundation for over five years, working to strengthen our global Scholar community and amplify the impact of our programmes.

My work lives somewhere between design, education, and anthropology, usually with sticky notes involved. I studied Human Sciences as an undergrad and am currently doing a Master’s in Anthropology at UCL. Degrees I struggle to explain at parties.

Born and raised in Kazakhstan 🇰🇿 Outside of work? Probably in the ceramics studio, wandering aimlessly with a podcast in my ears, attempting a handstand, or watching far too much TV. Big fan of nature and very small bugs.

Hi, thanks for the post! I was wondering if you could help me out with a couple of questions?

1) When are you planning to release the community workbook? 

2) In addition to directly asking users what they want, could you recommend some other questions we could ask to gain a deeper insight into their needs and what sort of content/activity would encourage them to be more engaged on the platform?

Thanks!
