About the event
What to expect
This session brings together organisations from across the North East that are using design-led approaches to tackle complex challenges and create positive change. Through practical examples and discussion, we'll explore how design can help shape services, places and opportunities that deliver lasting benefits for people, communities and the wider region.
Topics will include:
Community-led housing and place-making
Community energy and models of local ownership
Participation and co-design in shaping change
Designing services and platforms that improve access to employment and opportunity
Building more inclusive, sustainable and resilient communities
Join us to discover how design can help create an impact economy that works for people, places and communities.
