What You Will Learn
This course is ideal for architects, planners, building owners, organisational Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) teams and leaders looking to design (or redesign) inclusive spaces and experiences. Participants will learn actionable placemaking tools and how to build strategies to move the needle on innovation efforts within their organisations or industry.
This course adopts a user-centric approach to understand the needs and desires of various stakeholder of the space, and using that knowledge to design spaces and experiences that are important and relevant to their needs. With an inclusive design process, participants can gain valuable insights and feedback that can create spaces that are not only functional and efficient but also engaging and enjoyable for people. The methods taught here will help participants better plan, frame and scope new diverse, equitable and inclusive initiatives, as well as foster collaboration to develop new spaces and experiences with teams within participants' organisation.
This one-day course is packed with hands-on activities to experience and experiment with design-led strategies on participant own organisation's inclusive placemaking challenges. Participants will finish the day with new ideas, tools and strategies to run back in their own organisations.
