- Slide 2
- Setting the context Framework and Tools Case Studies Activities
Conclusion Agenda
- Slide 3
- Workshop breakup Session 1: Morning session (4 hrs)
Introduction Frameworks Case studies Form groups and brief about
the design activity Session 2: Post lunch session (4 hrs) Each
group will have 90 min to complete the activity and come up with a
process for approaching the problem space process for research and
design Each group will present their concept along with the thought
process This is will be followed by discussion and conclusion
- Slide 4
- Outcomes A consensus among the participants to embrace the need
for design thinking A good understanding about the framework and
steps to improve it Networking, sharing and collaborating Steps for
taking things forward White paper
- Slide 5
- What is Design for Social Impact?
- Slide 6
- ` Design Social Impact Of Products Services System On
Individuals Groups of people The society Which is Immediate Over a
period of time Context being Work Places Social Issues
Environmental Issues Economic Issues Could be Rural Urban BOP Of
Products Interfaces Services Systems Online / Offline By
Understanding People Human needs Experience Through Design Research
Social Innovations
- Slide 7
- Why Design? The most common misperception is the word design.
People think of primarily pretty pictures or forms. They don't
understand the depth to which design goesnot only in products, but
in every aspect of our life. Whether it is the design of a program,
a product or some form of communication, we are living in a world
thats totally designed. Somebody made a decision about everything.
And it was a design decision. - Sam Farber, Founder, Copco
cookware, OXO kitchen tools, WOVO serveware

- LEARN ANALYZE IDEATE
- Slide 28
- LEARN 1.Learn the problem space 2.Identify different pointers
and parameters within the problem space 3.Choose one or two
parameters within the problem space for the next step( you need to
have a clear rationale for choosing a certain parameter and not
choosing the others)

- Indoor air pollution Deforestation Carbon emissions Problem
Space LEARN
- Slide 31
- 1.Learn the problem space 2.Identify different pointers and
parameters within the problem space 3.Choose one or two parameters
within the problem space for the next step( you need to have a
clear rationale for choosing a certain parameter and not choosing
the others) 1. Identify the cause and effect of the selected
parameter(s) 2.Brainstorm several approaches and choose one that
will be ideal for the context you have in mind. (you need to have a
clear rationale for choosing a certain parameter and not choosing
the others) ANALYZELEARN

- Indoor air pollution health hazard (respiration problem and eye
irritation), carbon deposits on the wall and ceiling, and time
spent on cooking poor combustion, lack of ventilation, poor choice
of firewood & stove engineering ANALYZE Problem space
