-//​Human-centred design is an approach to interactive systems development that aims to make systems usable and useful by focusing on the users, their needs and requirements,​ and by applying human factors/​ergonomics,​ and usability knowledge and techniques. This approach enhances effectiveness and efficiency, improves human well-being, user satisfaction,​ [[dido:​public:​ra:​xapend:​xapend.a_glossary:​a:​accessibility|accessibility]] and sustainability;​ and counteracts possible adverse effects of use on human health, safety and performance.//​+//​Human-centred design is an approach to interactive systems development that aims to make systems usable and useful by focusing on the users, their needs and requirements,​ and by applying human factors/​ergonomics,​ and [[dido:​public:​ra:​xapend:​xapend.a_glossary:​u:​usability|usability]] ​knowledge and techniques.
