Working together with Gender Spectrum, we provide educational workshops tailored for schools interested in exploring how bathroom use and design might better serve all students. The workshops begin with an overall discussion and presentation on gender. With that knowledge in place all participants are then equally informed about the issues and opportunities. This process allows the whole team to arrive on the same page regardless of previous knowledge or experience. We believe strongly that a well-informed organization can more effectively define goals and identify potential roadblocks.
At the conclusion of the gender presentation we then discuss specific design scenarios and precedents that highlight the physical and spatial elements that relate to safe and comfortable bathroom use for all. Some of the precedents we explore are school projects that we consulted on and others are projects we admire from afar. While each school and project is unique, we’ve found that the community and design processes other schools have undertaken offer important lessons even in different contexts.
