Value Sensitive Design, or VSD, is a theoretically grounded approach to design that accounts for human values in a principled and comprehensive manner[1]. The term stems from the interest of designing technology and information systems that support enduring human values. Value sensitive design is an attempt to provide a theoretical and methodological framework with which to handle the aspect of value in design work[1].

History
This concept was developed by Batya Friedman and Peter Kahn at the University of Washington Information School in the late 1980s. The Value Sensitive Design (VSD) Research Group was founded in 1999 at the University of Washington by Batya Friedman in an effort to bring together Washington State faculty, students and stakeholders that want to design and develop new technologies that are created human-centered values in mind[2].

What Values to Include in Design?
One issue presented when engaging in the design value sensitive design process is deciding what values to implement into a design.
How to use these values to shape the design process
Choosing between conflicting values
Verifying the designed system embodies the intended values
Ethics in Value Sensitive Design
Privacy
Bias in Design
