Key result
University's design department gained an inclusive advanced typography course.

Production
Building an advanced curriculum
After researching and writing about inclusive practices broadly, students applied what they learned to the creation of a biscriptual (using two different scripts, or alphabets) type program for an international festival of (you guessed it) typography.
This type program was then used to produce festival artifacts including an event site and posters.
Supplemental material
Creating a logo and writing a case study were important assignments. To clarify my expectations, I documented criteria for each.
