+As part of the week FOSS Backstage Design will take a deep dive into UX Design in FOSS. On March 6th, Aparna Sundar will be giving a talk **[Increasing the human element in open source software](https://24.foss-backstage.de/sessions-ux24/?id=SD9WAM)** where she will share her experience about building open source software while maintaining a good balance of community input. Come discuss the ways in which software engineers or developers, designers, community and product managers can adopt and incorporate research practices in software design.
