Summer school innovation in social design

 

This summer, !DROPS collaborates with the University of Antwerp and Service Design Network Belgium to organise the Antwerp Summer University. This year, the goal of the Summer School is to offer a five-day practical, inspiring and engaging summer school about innovation in social design. Product, service and system designers (from local and international agencies), social innovators, academic researchers, and multiple other experts from (non-)profit organizations and governmental institutions will guide you through this summer school. We will work on the following building blocks:

  • Intercultural design

  • International design

  • Circular design

  • Bio design

  • Digital design

  • Fashion design

Social designers are currently looking for solutions to societal challenges, such as the environment, cultural issues and working with vulnerable target groups. During the summer school we will engage in following themes:

  1. What is social design and how can we create impact through social design?

  2. Challenges in social design: co-designing innovative solutions

  3. Thematic sessions on international and intercultural design

  4. Business modelling in social design

  5. Prototyping sessions in bio-design, circular design, digital and fashion design

  6. Storytelling through design
