No one vision is sufficient in and of itself – visions can guide but only by collaborative action in a creative generative process can visions grow and become part of an ongoing positive sociocultural reality.
Without taking into account the many worldviews that currently co-exist and crafting ways of including them in a positive and healthy form we will continue to alienate vast sections of all communities and humankind.

participating with local nonprofits in Providence
throughout the semester to uncover how a product,
service, system, space or strategy can improve
the services of the organization or the benefactors
directly.
The projects uncover the dialogue lingering among
many of us in our world of uncertain times: what
is the power of design and what is the role of the
industrial designer as a contributor to our society?
From development strategies, bike-sharing programs,
volunteer orientation booklets, to business strategies
for homeless entrepreneurs and more, you will find a
wide range of contributions, which we can then ask-
is this design or what role does design play in these
solutions?
The presentations will be followed by a discussion
about the questions posed in this class. What are the
opportunities of design for social impact? What might
be some of the methods to best engage in a new
community or culture to design for/with them? What
is the role and relevancy of the industrial designer in
addressing some of the leading issues of our day?
