What is the role of design in advancing the public good? How can nonprofit organizations effectively leverage design to help them achieve their missions? These are questions that faculty and students at Parsons have explored over the years through dynamic collaborations with nonprofit organizations in a variety of fields. The school presents its first symposium that brings together design educators, practitioners and nonprofit administrators to discuss the role of design in addressing larger social issues. The daylong program seeks to deepen the relationship between design education and the nonprofit world through panel discussions, case studies, and dialogue.
