Paradigm shift
This year, the focus was on the transformative role of design to contribute to innovation on socially relevant topics within various societal domains. The challenges of tomorrow’s society demand new ways of innovation, being new strategies, ideas, and/or concepts. It requires people to release existing paradigms, to change perspectives and to behave differently.The example projects below give an overview of the goals that the students set for themselves, the different iterations students go through and their results.
