Design for Change: A Symposium on Design, Social Responsibility, and Non-Profit Organizations

This September, the school will present its first conference that brings together design educators, practitioners and nonprofit administrators to discuss the role of design in addressing larger social issues. The daylong program will include panel discussions featuring leading voices in the field, presentations of case studies of designer-nonprofit partnerships, and opportunities for informal dialogues on the issues. A keynote address will be presented by David Bornstein, the acclaimed author of How to Change the World: Social Entrepreneurs and the Power of New Ideas, which documents the massive transformation that is occurring around the world, as millions of ordinary people - social entrepreneurs - are increasingly stepping in to solve the problems where governments and bureaucracies have failed.
