What is The Good People?

The Good People is an immersive 5-week online program for designers and innovators who want to make a difference.

A cohort of driven changemakers will join us for series of five interactive, fast-paced workshops over 5 weeks, with in-depth independent tasks between sessions to apply and embed their learning.

This program covers the core skills, tools and mindsets you need to understand and make progress on complex social issues, and to design yourself a career with impact.
