What is the Climate Working Group?
We are service designers based in the San Francisco region exploring the critical intersection of climate and design.
We hold educational events, contribute narratives and imagery to tell climate stories, and network with groups in other regions.
Background
Climate change is one of the most urgent challenges we face as a society. By 2030, conditions that now seem extreme will be the new normal, posing unprecedented challenges to social, economic, and ecological systems. Climate change impacts also exacerbate and multiply existing disparities and pain points in our communities. This new context requires us to start designing for this future today.
These impacts also present challenges that service designers are uniquely suited to tackling—they are complex, intersectional, and expansive in scope and geography. Despite having the right tools for the job, our role in this sector has yet to be thoroughly explored or defined. Our goal as a working group is to lay the foundation for this work and support the application of service design to address climate change through the generation of research, best practices, tools, and/or other projects/products. Join us as we build a community of practice around this intersection.

The service design community has long recognised the importance of the employee experience as being inherently interlinked with user experience. Employees are integral to any service delivery, whether they are present in face-to-face service interactions, such as hospitality, or whether they are behind the scenes of (primarily) digital services, responsible for apps and interfaces.
Are you ready to revolutionize the future of service design? If you're starting out in your service design odyssey, this conference is the perfect place to ignite your creativity, expand your knowledge, and make your first marks on the world of service design.
