We believe that the human condition is increasingly challenged by poor experiences. IxDA intends to improve the human condition by advancing the discipline of Interaction Design. To do this, we foster a community of people that choose to come together to support this intention. IxDA relies on individual initiative, contribution, sharing and self-organization as the primary means for us to achieve our goals. IxDA engages passionate volunteers to help serve the needs of the international Interaction Design community. With more than 100,000 community members and local groups worldwide, the IxDA network actively focuses on interaction design issues for the practitioner, no matter their level of experience. IxDA was founded in 2003 and incorporated in 2005.
