What to expect
Introduction to the theory
During the training course, you will receive an introduction to the basics of systemic design and the framework of the toolkit. You will gain an understanding as to which types of problems or issues can be addressed with systemic design.
Direct application
Get ready! Most of the course will be spent applying systemic design to a case, allowing for practical application of the theory in a real-life situation. We will work in breakout sessions of small groups led by our design teachers as we go through the steps laid out in the toolkit.
What is Systemic design?
Systemic design combines concepts of systems thinking and design thinking. It looks at relationships rather than single parts: this means studying how different people in a system interact, understanding how different variables relate to each other to cause a specific issue.
This is why systemic design brings a set of solutions or, better, “interventions” which can all together reinforce each other to drive a change in the current problematic situation.
After a systemic design process, you will know which projects to start, or what to redesign in order to create space for change (e.g. products, services, policies, procedures, etc).

- Understand what systemic design is and what kind of projects it can be applied to
- Analyse the problem from the perspectives of different stakeholders
- Recognise the key causes and crucial variables that influence your case or problem
- Identify the leverage points in a system
- Develop an intervention strategy
- Plan the implementation of your strategy
Target audience
No previous knowledge of systems thinking or design thinking is necessary for this course. Anyone interested in learning how to apply systemic design to analyse problems and innovate in an impactful way is welcome!
