Course Description

The world is dealing with more and more complex problems that are viciously entangled with each other. In this context, service designers need to consider how to enhance ecological, economic and social sustainability through their work. Social sustainability is at the core of service design, in particular in times where societies are shaking and services themselves become more and more complex. But what is social sustainability and how does it relate to service design? How can we design socially sustainable services? The webinars will provide a peek into socially sustainable service design and an opportunity to reflect the role and tools of service design from the social sustainability lense.
