Workshop: Using Design Thinking to Improve Society and Democracy

Do you want to address society's biggest issues but not sure where you'd start? Or, perhaps you're idealistic but struggle with concrete planning? Or maybe you just want to make a positive difference with others who also want the same?

In this event, our special guest, Usha (with support from Nick) will use her expertise to guide participants in a workshop on how we can use Design Thinking to address an issue in society.

Attendees will be stepped through the process and come up with their own plan they could realistically implement to make their communities or the world a better place.

After the participants (democratically) decide the social issue they wish to address, Usha will guide participants through the steps of Discovery, Definition, Development and Deployment to create a blueprint for action, prototyping and hopefully motivation to address that issue!

There is also potential here for attendees to form a committed group to address the specific social issue, that could be reiterated upon, perfected and implemented to make long-lasting social change.

We have allowed 4 hours, but we will still half way for snacks (BYO) and a break.
