What changes could we make to achieve Net Zero here in Scotland?
Meeting Net Zero by 2045 requires the consideration of new approaches, interdisciplinary collaboration, and innovative thinking.
This hands-on workshop will take on the challenge of designing a sustainable commuter town in Edinburgh. Get involved with designing and building a prototype and be a part of using a Human Centred Design approach to engage with the Net Zero challenge.
Human Centred Design (HCD) is a framework that helps find innovative and sustainable solutions to problems. It can be used to help impacted communities understand their needs and develop new propositions based on participatory activities – from field research and insight generation to ideation, prototyping, and testing. Join in with proto-type building, and learn about this approach whilst imagining your ideal future for sustainable urban living.
