THINKING AND ACTING FOR THE COMMON GOOD
Driving change for the common good
Using the design approach, you will be required to devise innovative, co-constructed solutions in the field of public action and social innovation.
For 5 months, you will learn about the global approach to design, its tools and methodology through theoretical and practical input.
You will exercise your critical thinking skills, engage in cooperation, empathy and collective intelligence, activate your creativity and experiment with your solutions.
Learn the fundamentals of design
You will work as part of a team to get as close as possible to the ground on concrete projects entrusted to you by local authorities.
At every stage of the course, you will adopt the designer's stance and experience design as a shared culture of innovation:
re-interviewing what already exists => mapping the ecosystem => identifying the points of tension in a given situation => proposing creative solutions => mobilising the players involved => testing the proposed solutions => capitalising on feedback from the field to roll out the solution.18
