- 11 am-12:30 pm: Teaser Workshop on Human-Centered Design
Workshop Description
Human-centered design is an innovation process that centers human needs and experiences in discovering breakthrough ideas and creating solutions. Using a design-thinking approach to problem-solving will improve collaboration, increase empathy, and uncover powerful insights. In this 90-minute teaser, we’ll discuss and practice creative tools that you can put into practice personally and professionally to generate new ideas and better outcomes.
No prior experience with design thinking is necessary to attend. This teaser workshop will benefit those with a passion for social change, inclusion and diversity, and those at the early stages of exploring their own ideas and social enterprises.
