The User Centered Design Works website intends to promote user-centered design by providing case studies of projects where a user-centered design approach was applied successfully, some basic principles for a user-centered design methodology, and the UCD Yellow Pages with an overview of organisations, websites, events and magazines dedicated to user-centered design.

The website is initiated and managed by the IOP MMI, an Innovation-oriented Research Program Human-Machine Interaction funded by the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs.
