It is proposed a gender inclusive approach to support social processes of diffusion of technology through design, which implies promote a participatory mindset among designers, by means of which, according to his own experiences, all people be valued as partners of the projects; this as an alternative to the technocratic mindset where design criteria tend to be dictated by experts, as a rule, without any dialogue, reducing ordinary people to passive clients waiting to receive the progress so designers can bring to them.
