Co-design Now!
Co-design Now! is a map-based, spatialized resource - that highlights community groups, local initiatives, and grassroots organizations, all in one place.
This project aims to amplify the work of community organizations and initiatives across Toronto’s Neighbourhood Improvement Areas to foster engagement between them and designers to strengthen the resiliency of placemaking and city-building practice. Through the process of crowdsourcing information on grassroots organizations and placemaking initiatives, we hope this resource will expand and deepen cross-disciplinary relationships and raise awareness for design as a vehicle for activism.
It’s time to push our conventional practice to analyze and incorporate social movements, cultural histories, and community leaders in our work.
