Design for Social Impact Lab

Design for Social Impact Lab is a rebellious and disruptive social enterprise that challenges international development agencies, social enterprises, academic institutions, and individuals to create transformative programmes, policies and research grounded in equity-based design thinking. Since 2021, we've worked with dozens of organisations helping them centre equity in their work through online and in-person trainings and workshops. This has been the first step in strengthening the social impact sector by collaborating with organizations and enabling them to design more effective and equitable solutions. This, in turn, contributes to a more robust and responsive social impact ecosystem. Our new proposal or mission is to revolutionise social impact work by providing organisations and individuals from traditionally excluded backgrounds with the tools to design equity-centred programmes, policies and research in the social impact sector, shaping the next generation of social impact leaders. Our mission is to revolutionise social impact work through our innovative approach, challenging conventions and fostering inclusive and sustainable solutions. Through our disruptive approach, we seek to reshape the landscape of social impact work. We pioneer change by: 🔈 Strategic guidance We support organisations centre equity in their organisation design; this entails reviewing organisational structures, conducting equity audits, unpacking ways of working, and supporting organisations get to where they want to be. 🔈Coaching We provide 1-1 support for non profit practitioners and researchers.
