Rather than creating a “thing,” sometimes the design solution is to generate a tool. In this case, IDEO created a toolkit for helping communities, assisted by Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) to address their own design problems.
Their free, downloadable toolkit offers a process by which people’s needs can be understood in new ways and innovative solutions to meet those needs both found and implemented — all with financial sustainability in mind.
