“design is an agent of change that enables us to understand complex changes and problems, and to turn them into something useful.”

“tackling today’s global challenges will require radical thinking, creative solutions and collaborative action.” -- Tim Brown, IDEO

world economic forum, dubai --> global agenda council on designprinciples/ideas/strategies to address complex problems facing us all

can kids really make a difference beyond the classroom?

local/global problems --> challenge children to design solutions now

“our kids need to find ways to think outside of the box rather than be confined by what is possible.

Design thinking does all of this.

it’s a comprehensive approach to understanding the world and understanding how we exist in it.

and it’s so much fun.”
