Human Interaction Design

InWithForward is a social design shop with a big ambition: to turn our social safety nets into trampolines and enable people on the margins to flourish. 10 years ago, our small team with this really big ambition set-up shop in Canada. After a decade of trial and error in the UK, the Netherlands, and Australia, few of our solutions stood the test of time. Meanwhile dominant systems remained as timeless as ever.So we took an alternative route. We started by building long-term partnerships with values-aligned organizations, and re-imagining our theory of how transformative change happens. Hint: we think it's all about new kinds of roles, relationships, and connection points. Progress has certainly not been fast or linear, and neither is the kind of creative disruption we’re after.Join us as we hold space for new possibilities to emerge!

<H2 CLASS="p1">You can design way more than fyers and websites.</H2>
Join us for an introductory session and neighbourhood walk to explore the idea that everything is designed, but not everything is human-centred. We'll look at the difference between art & design; clarify the different types of design; and most of all, show what designing-in-context can bring to social services and social policy. Be ready to use your hands.
Made for: everyone!
Facilitated by: Jonas Piet
