OpenIDEO is an open innovation platform working to solve big challenges for social good. We're a global community that draws upon the optimism, inspiration, ideas and opinions of everyone to solve problems together. This is a presentation from the OpenIDEO San Francisco meetup group. Our focus was on the "research phase", sharing insights and inspiration around the current design challenge, that is, how might we make low income, urban areas safer and more empowering for women? The OpenIDEO San Francisco meetup group is part of a worldwide network of people interested in establishing the social connections that are often required to make a local impact happen.
