Description

How many times have you given up on your rights because the form was intimidating? Dr. Onna Segev, Head of the Department of Visual Communication, in collaboration with Dr. Dalit Ken-Dror Feldman from the Clinics for Legal Change at the Faculty of Law, are trying to make a change in this field. As part of a collaboration towards the merger between  The NB Haifa School of Design and the University, second-year students in the Typography course in the Department of Visual Communication redesigned legal forms in an attempt to turn them into more accessible and less intimidating ones. The works were presented on Feb. 2024 as part of the course. The selected works will be sent to the relevant regulators, with a proposal for a redesigned and accessible version of the forms.
