What comes to mind when you hear changemaking? Is it protesting for social justice? Maybe someone picking up trash at a beach? At Beyond the Box, we take a more unconventional approach to social action — we seek to make changemaking an act of creativity and design.
The Workshop is split into two components — ideas and action. Attendees will be engaged in both components over the two-day period.
Ideas
Design Thinking
