Interdisciplinary Student- led Design for Social Impact
Abstract
Scout Labs is a multidisciplinary team of students who partner with local organizations as design consultants for social good. Through the Center for Community Service at Northeastern University, Scout Labs is connected with a local organization that tackles social issues in the Boston area. Throughout the course of the project, Scout labs works closely with their community partner to develop a solution, using a creative approach called Human Centered Design. In addition to creating positive impact in the Boston area, this partnership also provides the team with an educational experience that aims to create a more civically engaged design community at Northeastern University.
