Codesign is a term that describes collaborative approaches to product research where the '''boundaries between users, designers and researchers are intentionally blurred'''. The term codesign overlaps with that of [http://cpsr.org/prevsite/program/workplace/PD.html/ participatory design], where many early projects occurred in Scandinavia in the early 1980s as new technologies were being introduced to workplaces and trade unions, workers and designers collaborated to ensure workers were not negatively impacted by the introduction of new technologies.
