In addition to design research work, I also do communication design and knowledge translation work.
Youth Centre Service Design
Just as the methodology of design can be used to develop objects, buildings, logos or posters, it can also be applied to service development. Service design is a user-centric, multidisciplinary and evidence-based approach to the development of services.
I applied the tools of service design to revamp a rural youth center that was not fully meeting the needs of the most vulnerable youth in the community.
