Bringing Design Closer

Just announced 'Doing Design Festival V2' - June 18 2021

Hello and welcome to another episode of Bringing Design Closer. My name is Gerry Scullion, and I’m a service designer, and founder of This is HCD and CEO of This is Doing - we provide live online design and innovation classes, providing training for people within the Design and change-making space.

We also have our new Doing Design Festival series now, with the next event on June 18 with the theme ‘Doing Design Online’ with some of the TiD talking about loads of related its. More info see doing designfestival.com

Today on the show we have Shane Waring from Dublin City Council and founder of Dublin City BETA - a wonderful initiative that is focused on making Dublin City more liveable through service experimentation. We speak with Shane about the process behind the scenes and what makes this initiative different to typical initiatives in normal Councils and Governments.

We learn more about the background to some of Shanes work and go deeper into what the benefits are for Councils to approach this mindset of rapid service experimentation.

What is Bringing Design Closer ?

Bringing Design into organisations is hardly ever straight forward. It comes with its own unique set of problems.

We discuss with thought leaders around the world, what has worked for them in enabling a design revolution to occur.

Within our podcast, we specifically ask how might Design improve social and civic outcomes. We shine a light on Design in local council and Governments.
