GOOD19: a different type of gathering
Summary
At the Great Outdoors Of Design we enjoyed a green and sustainable picnic lunch outside Plexal, the innovation centre at the Olympic Parc in London. This venue was our playground for a day were participants of the conference, together with Reach Partners, engaged in a mix of presentations on international case studies and extensive discussions in small groups. As founder and partner of the REACH network for global design research, and the main local organiser of the conference, STBY looks back on a successful day filled with discussion and learning. Throughout the conference special attention was paid at connecting issues from the fields of Care, Work and Planet to all the workshops and keynote speeches. REACH partner Michael Davis-Burchat, director of Big Human based in Toronto, wrote an article about GOOD19 on the website Medium were he explains more about why GOOD19 is different than other conferences.
