Human Centred Approaches to Systems Transformation

Human Centred Approaches to Systems Transformation

September’s Throne Speech said it best: “COVID-19 has exposed the vulnerabilities in our societies.”
There is, perhaps now more than ever, an urgent push to get a better hold over the social issues affecting our communities. With urgency comes a need for immediate action, actions that can be sweeping in nature. But issues are complex – there is no straightforward, one-size-fits-all solution that will meet the needs of everyone. Taking our cues to “build back better” and leveraging technologies that are accessibly within reach, now is the time to probe problems in more depth, to find effective and longterm solutions.

Join us as we explore how applying approaches such as Human Centred Design, Design Thinking and Systems Thinking will foster an environment of continual learning and understanding of people’s needs in order to effectively resolve complex social issues.
