Designing for the planet and its people

This month we are focusing on designing for our planet and its people. We'll cover topics from financial inclusion, prototyping future energy policies to tackling the climate crisis as a community. We'll discuss what we're currently doing, good practices in designing for the planet & what's our role as service designers in dealing with #ClimateCrisis.

We bring you fabulous talks from Ofgem, Idean and Snook!

Ofgem
Last year Ofgem received grant funding from the Regulators’ Pioneer Fund to try something new in regulation. At the same time, Ofgem teamed up with the Department of Business and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) to run a 'Future Energy Retail Market Review'.

They explored 2 burning questions:

1. As the energy market evolves, we need to ensure that people are appropriately protected. How can we involve consumers in this design process?
2. Can methods that are typically used to design new products and services bring value to a regulatory policy-making project? How do they need to be adapted?

The team will share their approach to inclusive design and research in this regulatory policy design project.
