Please join for the following tech talk:

*Tech Talk**:* Integrating user behavior to design better products *Presenter:* Pau Giner *Date:* May 31, 2016 *Time: *19:00 UTC < http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Tech+Talk%3A+Integr...

*Length:* 30 minutes Link to live YouTube stream http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLeTABdcdR4 *IRC channel for questions/discussion:* #wikimedia-office

*Summary: *The design process helps us to find solutions that respond to the user needs. However, this process needs to rely on actual user behavior to make sure we are addressing the right problems with the best possible solutions.

Wikimedia projects are developed in the open and they reach millions of users in very different contexts. This makes it challenging to integrate the different observed behaviors, measured actions, opinions and other forms of feedback.

After applying the design process on different Wikimedia projects, I want to share some good practices and lessons learnt when integrating user behavior to inform product decisions, and how you (in whichever role you are playing) can help designers to better support this process.
