IDEO London Design Camp - Lead
We wanted to bring a long-time tradition of IDEO Bay Area to London by offering a short design thinking camp for highschool students interested in technology, business, and design. We put an emphasis on recruiting students from under represented communities.
My Role
I led the first London design camp, putting together recruiting efforts, curriculum and a team of IDEO-ers.
Challenge
How can we bring IDEO Design camp to London and support students from under represented backgrounds?
Solution
We held a 35 student design thinking camp during the summer at our office in central London. The course was 3 full days, where students learned about different disciplines of a design firm and presented a group project on reducing waste in local communites.
Outcomes
Design camp continues to be repeated in London!
