What You Will Learn

This Program is ideal for professionals and leaders building strategies to move the needle on sustainability efforts within their organisations or industries. The Program is less about the theory of sustainability, but introduces actionable strategies to help teams leverage design to create impact for sustainability for and within organisations.

Sustainability has moved from being a regulatory burden to becoming vital to an organization's future vision and a necessity for remaining competitive in a fast-changing global market. As the goalposts of environmental, social and financial issues move, the course will equip participants with new and creative ways to research, identify and create opportunities for sustainable action that is aligned with participants' organisation goals. The methods taught in the course will help participant to come out better plan, frame and scope new sustainable initiatives, as well as foster collaboration to develop new sustainable ideas with teams within participants' organisation.

This one-day course is packed with hands-on activities to experience and experiment with design-led strategies on participants' own organisation's sustainability challenges. Participants will finish the day with new ideas, tools and strategies to run back in their own organisations.
