Design for social impact innovation at the Winterhouse Institute
Posted in: Uncategorized
In January 2009, the Winterhouse Institute began a two-year project, funded by the Rockefeller Foundation with a $1.5 million grant, to develop collective action and collaboration for social impact across the design industry – and encompassing a range of other institutions that work on the needs of poor or vulnerable people.
The funding will be used to develop specific programs for social impact by the design community, to host a major conference at Aspen in 2009, to develop case studies with the Yale School of Management, and to create an editorial website to monitor progress in the zone of design and innovation around social issues.
