Info eesti keeles:
World Usability Day (WUD) ehk Maailma kasutatavuse päev on iga-aastane disaineritele, tootejuhtidele ja teistele professionaalidele suunatud konverents ning suurim kasutatavuse-, veebi- ja interaktsioonidisaini üritus kogu Baltikumis. Trinidad Wiseman koostöös Tallinna Ülikooliga korraldab Eestis konverentsi juba aastast 2008.
Novembri teises pooles toimuvad mitmed praktilised kasutatavuse teemalised töötoad. Sündmus lõppeb konverentsiga, kus astuvad üles maailma juhtivad disaini eksperdid. Kõik töötoad ja konverents toimub inglise keeles. Töötubades soovitame osaleda koha peal, konverents ise toimub hübriidformaadis – tule füüsiliselt kohale või jälgi esitlusi veebi vahendusel.
