Webinar Series 2025: Giving everyone a voice through Co-Design
While technical innovation in the transformation of existing homes is advancing, social innovation – especially involving residents and communities in the design process – remains a challenge. Removing assumptions, by directly engaging with people who live in these homes about what works and what does not is crucial to the successful delivery of solutions for the transformation of homes. This webinar focuses on how processes of co-design can be placed at the heart of transforming homes to make them fit for future generations.
