Our founder and history

The Inclusive Design Jam was founded in May 2022 by Sandra Camacho (She/Her), aka Sandra By Design. She is an inclusive & equitable design strategist and educator based in Paris, France.

After leaving her job at Google to pursue her dream to design for social impact, she found herself feeling really alone in this work.

She was inspired to create a decentralized space for collective learning and action. And in the time since, it's grown to a thriving online community of 500+ practitioners from all over the world.
