Fashion Revolution is a global movement calling for greater transparency, sustainability and ethics in the fashion industry. It aims to radically change how clothes are sourced, produced and purchased so that what people wear is made in a safe, clean and fair way. Over the years, Fashion Revolution has used events, campaigns and resources to educate people and put pressure on brands, and it is starting to have an impact as some brands are becoming more transparent about their supply chains and some factories are improving working conditions. However, more still needs to be done to transform the entire fashion system.
Camden Active Spaces Presentation - Active by DesignDesign Council
The document discusses a project in the London Borough of Camden aimed at increasing physical activity levels among children and adolescents. It notes that many children and girls in particular do not meet physical activity guidelines. The project involves designing new playgrounds at schools and using accelerometers to measure physical activity levels before and after the playground upgrades, to evaluate if the new playgrounds increase activity. It also involves fitness testing of students. The goal is to determine if upgraded playgrounds can successfully increase physical activity and improve health and well-being.
Harry Rutter Presentation - Active by DesignDesign Council
Presentation by Harry Rutter (London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine/Public Health England) at Design Council's Active by Design Summit, 18 September 2014.
Physical inactivity has become a global epidemic, with this generation of kids being the most inactive in history. The document discusses the rise of physical inactivity due to modern conveniences and the normalization of sedentary behaviors. Data shows countries have become 30-50% less active in just 1-2 generations. This inactivity cycle negatively impacts health, education, earnings potential, and economies. However, creating regular positive experiences with physical activity from ages 7 to 12 can help establish active behaviors that last into adulthood. A united effort is needed across sectors to address this issue and shift perceptions of physical activity from optional to essential.
Eloise Dey Presentation - Active by DesignDesign Council
Team Day is an event held in November 2011 that promoted locally grown and produced food in London through the hashtag #urbanfoodfortnight. The event encouraged using London-grown and London-made food for dinner and allowed participants space in their back gardens to grow produce.
Riccardo Marini Presentation - Active by DesignDesign Council
This document summarizes key points from Riccardo Marini's Active by Design Summit presentation in London. It discusses how prioritizing pedestrian and cyclist access over vehicles can make cities healthier and more vibrant. Specific strategies highlighted include reducing car infrastructure to make room for walking, cycling, and public spaces; implementing pilot projects like Summer Streets in New York to test pedestrianizing streets; and learning from Copenhagen's success in increasing non-motorized traffic through good urban design. The overall message is that cities should focus on placemaking and creating environments that make active transportation and human interaction easy in order to improve public health, economic activity, and quality of life.
Simon Allford Presentation - Active by DesignDesign Council
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
Cabe Design Council - Estate of the Nation by Alison BrooksDesign Council
Alison Brooks Architects has undertaken several estate regeneration projects in London, redeveloping housing estates to create diverse neighborhoods for 21st century living. Some key principles of their design approach include restoring the street and civic spaces, introducing a variety of housing typologies and architectural styles, and emphasizing local identity and communal areas. Local authorities play an important role as long-term stewards who enable high quality, mixed-use developments through partnerships with private sector organizations.
Here are the presentations from the launch of our Leading Business by Design research report, conducted by Warwick Business School. This qualitative research project investigates the strategic use of design at senior levels in a sample of UK and global businesses.
