METHOD: Co-Design workshop at Himmelbjerggården

Nordplus Horizontal network arranged a workshop activity open for the Permaculture festival goers on Saturday August 5th 2023.  We wanted to give something back to the festival and use our process to get to know each others as way to show how design and participation can be an important change maker. Under the headline of "Skab håb for fremtiden - Sundhed, bæredygtighed og co-design, Nordplus - Nordisk netværk" (Create hope for the future, Health, Sustainability and Co-Design) we all in the nwtwork group guided participants during a 2 hour long workshop. Based on the idea in "Design thinking" that participation is empowering, we invited the 3-6 participants to join one of 4 groups  and to enter into a co-design process, consisting of 3 rounds. 

Round 1: What is at stake for you personally

Round 2. What does it mean to the local community and society?
