Recommendation

In recent years, an increasing number of individuals and organizations have dedicated themselves to decreasing socioeconomic disparities. As the COVID-19 pandemic and Black Lives Matter movement revealed, however, there is still a long distance left to travel on the road to a more diverse and inclusive society. In this panel discussion hosted by the Royal Society for Arts, Manufactures and Commerce’s (RSA) Ian Burbidge, change makers Fred Brown, Christopher Murray, Courtney Savie Lawrence and Roya Mahboob discuss their efforts to use design, innovation and experimentation to help build a more equitable world.

Take-Aways

  • Identify the pressing concerns of the moment and pivot to meet those needs.
  • Prioritize both formal and informal learning opportunities.
  • Don’t assume any issue is too large for a community to tackle; the power of grassroots efforts can be profound.
