The Innovation School is a leading centre for design teaching that applies Design Innovation to the key issues defining contemporary society. We examine design’s role as a catalyst for positive change, and investigate its potential impact on people and places. In this podcast, faculty, researchers, project partners and recent graduates discuss a human-centred, research-driven design approach as they explore the “near future” and “next now” in search of actionable innovations. https://sit.gsa.ac.uk/
