Governments & International Organisations
What cognitive demands do institutions place on the people who depend on them?
Public systems require people to understand, remember, compare, decide, sequence, communicate and act. Governments and international organisations can help HIW study cognitive burden, accessibility and better service design in real institutional settings.
