The main mission of systems-oriented design is to build the designer’s own interpretation and implementation of systems thinking so that systems thinking can fully benefit from design thinking and practice and vice versa.

Designing Futures to Flourish: ISSS 2015 keynotePeter Jones
We now find ourselves as a systems thinking community inquiring into planetary governance for climate and ecological politics. The Anthropocene demands a planetary response, and yet we often find even our fellow travelers tethered to discourses of technological management, cultural change, and right action. We might now advocate a stronger role for social systems design as a process for continual engagement of citizen stakeholders, and between these citizens and policy makers, as advocated by Christakis, Ulrich and others. As we have seen power (economic and political) separate from its cultural histories, and become globalized, we may find ourselves in trajectories of action but with marginal power to effect societal outcomes.
We are faced with a dual mandate of restorative system design, recovering human needs in our communities, and policy system design, restoring the long historical arc toward democratic governance. And as these are both designable contexts, systemic design can integrate ecological, technological and design thinking to guide policy in more productive ways.
• We find ourselves captured in the politics of solutionism. Most presentations of the “problems” as stated before us reveal a trajectory of preferred solutions and their possible shortcomings.
• Climate change, even the entire Anthropocene aeonic perspective, represents a problematique of multiple effects systems. We are bound up in political discourses of “system change” and do not share a compelling common view of a flourishing world. We seem unable to reregister the most compelling societal choices and drivers save carbon mitigation.
• We have not conducted, to my knowledge, a substantial stakeholder discovery that extends beyond the immediate and obvious primary combatants in the climate change wars.
• As citizens and political actors on the planetary stage, we have been afraid or unable to present a clear view of the risk scenarios, possible governance strategies, or a normative plan for serious global investment. If the planet were a business concern, it would be in receivership by now.

Artifacts for the Systemic Design of Flourishing Enterprises - OCADU Research Peter Jones
Human commerce utilizes the most significant share of natural resources and produces the largest aggregate impact on the earth’s environment. As a consequence of modern employment and work cultures, commerce, corporations as opposed to governments, also construct much of the social contract and social organizational forms in developed societies. Sustainable development movements to conserve resources and to democratize or enhance organizational practices have called for culture change or transformation. However, these approaches have not yielded results that will significantly enhance human flourishing in the face of globalized commerce, which has no common governance system. We suggest that the goals of alignment toward sustainable development or so-called corporate sustainability are misguided and systemically depreciative, as they purport to sustain activities that foreseeably accelerate ecological degradation. We propose a modeling practice for stakeholder design of strongly sustainable enterprises for the intention of whole system flourishing across living ecosystems and organized social systems. This systemic design approach to business transformation functions at the level of the business model. We claim that business model design affords the highest leverage across all modes of organizing for collective cultural adoption ecosystemic practices.

Human-Centered Design for Partnering with PurposeSimone Saldanha
How human-centered design can be used in a community health setting to co-design health solutions with residents. Examples focus on work done by Alameda County Public Health Department's Building Blocks for Health Equity Unit. Workshop originally presented at 2018 CityMatCH Conference.
This work presents a collection of ‘ethical by design’ principles for considering ethical aspects in the design and implementation of technology-based products and services. It is a work-in-progress describing the need for new, innovative concepts and approaches in ethical design-based thinking. The work argues that design thinking should and can be ‘ethical by design’; that designs should strive to go beyond the ethical guidelines that are set by regulatory bodies and other such governance. This manifesto of ‘ethical by design’ principles is intended to support developers, providers, and users in the collaborative process of inherently and explicitly including ethics into product and service design.
Presented at ECCE 2017, September 19–22, 2017, Umeå, Sweden.
Humanity Centered Design: Why human centered design is no longer enough and w...Emilia Palaveeva
In the last few years, human centered design has been credited with creating exciting and rich products, services and experiences. But as the pace of change accelerates and we come to terms with the impact of transformational technologies like social media, virtual reality and artificial intelligence, human centered design, with its focus on the individual is no longer sufficient if we hope to create not only delightful but meaningful experiences. Here is why and how design should evolve to be humanity-centered and claim its role as new enlightenment advocate.

Clinical Synthesis Map: Cancer Care Pathways in Canadian Healthcare
Jones PH, Shakdher S and Singh P. Systemic visual knowledge translation for breast and colorectal cancer research. Current Oncology 2017 (in press).
The Clinical Map visually represents breast and colorectal cancer processes across Canadian provincial and territorial systems. A roadmap metaphor illustrates a system-wide view of patient flow across the stages of cancer care. Green “road signs” identify clinical cancer stages across the roadmap: Pre-Diagnosis, Peri-Diagnosis, Diagnostic Interval, Diagnosis, Treatment, Rehabilitation, After Care, and Survivorship (with Palliative Care expressed as an end point). The visual metaphor of seasonal trees visually connects these stages to the patient’s cancer journey from pre-diagnosis (summer) through treatment (winter), followed by new growth (spring) in survivorship.
The levels of primary, secondary and tertiary care guide the vertical dimension. Information and communications technology reaches across levels and stages, but is shown disconnected from primary care. The road-like pathways are colour-coded where experts differentiated care pathways between breast cancer (pink) and colorectal (blue). Where not distinguished (white), the pathways indicate current practices shared across the cancer journeys.
Yellow navigation signs indicate cancer events across primary care pathways. Starting with Prevention and ending with Long-term Care, these events show points for primary care continuity during cancer treatment. A parallel path below the stages indicates where some patients may also employ complementary or alternative therapies.
Significant areas of complexity generalized across cancer care are revealed in peri-diagnosis and the diagnostic interval pathways. A patient can be screen-detected (and then present to a family physician, shown in the breast cancer pathway) or may be initially diagnosed in primary care (white pathway). The circular pathways in the diagnostic cycle suggest multiple possible tests within primary care. With a primary care diagnosis, patients are referred and flow to secondary/tertiary cancer care. The stages of intake, biopsy, pathology, and confirmed diagnosis are shown, and the complex pathways of cancer treatment, shown on the map in a typical (not definitive) order of surgery, radiation/chemotherapy, and continuing treatment through assessment of outcome.

TEMPORALLY INFORMED TRANSITION DESIGN
COMPLEX TEMPORAL DESIGN
Interconnected and interdependent
‘systems problems’, exist at multiple levels
of scale within the social and environmental spheres
[Designers need to] understand
how to work iteratively, at multiple
levels of scale, over long horizons of time
Design has a key role to play in societal
transitions to more sustainable futures

Complex systems are difficult to understand without the
aid of visuals. There are too many moving parts to mentally
keep track of. The parts interact in too many ways. The whole
system is cognitively overwhelming insofar as it cannot be
absorbed in one go without the aid of an external reference.
That is partly due to humans' inability to juggle more than
a few complicated ideas in working memory at one time.
Thus, visuals are a simplifying and organizing device that
complements the way human naturally think if they are
designed well. This poster is an early glimpse of a larger
project (called SystemViz) that explores what it means to
design such visuals well.

Working with data is a challenge for many organizations. Nonprofits in particular may need to collect and analyze sensitive, incomplete, and/or biased historical data about people. In this talk, Dr. Cori Faklaris of UNC Charlotte provides an overview of current AI capabilities and weaknesses to consider when integrating current AI technologies into the data workflow. The talk is organized around three takeaways: (1) For better or sometimes worse, AI provides you with “infinite interns.” (2) Give people permission & guardrails to learn what works with these “interns” and what doesn’t. (3) Create a roadmap for adding in more AI to assist nonprofit work, along with strategies for bias mitigation.
