The Co-Design Canvas
Societal challenges have become increasingly pressing. They affect us all: politicians, citizens, government officials, business professionals, NGOs, designers and researchers. Truly understanding and tackling these challenges is difficult, because no single stakeholder or organisation is responsible for them, and everything is connected, interwoven and in a current state of flux and change. This results in challenges becoming orphaned and stakeholders unable, or unwilling, to make all kinds of important decisions.
In this book, they have introduced the Co-Design Canvas, a practical and easy-to-use instrument that can support multi-stakeholder coalitions and/or facilitators to flexibly plan, conduct and evaluate a co-design process or initiative around societal challenges. This night, the author, Professor in Societal Impact Design Wina Smeenk presents this work.
