Community-Centered Co-Design Seminar
Social transformation processes often require designing solutions that take the form of products, services, or experiences. These can include a community hall, an educational program, a gardening project, waste management technology, playgrounds, or a neighborhood event. All these initiatives can be imagined in collaboration with the community, and guiding these processes requires empathy, creativity, and a deep understanding of the context. There are no set recipes or formulas, but much to consider and explore in practice.
TARGET AUDIENCE: Open to individuals from all disciplines working in social projects, with an interest in the participatory design of products or services.
