A recap from last night's event around the question: "How might we inspire children and their caregivers to read together?"

Gathered in the cosy @ExclusiveBooks Rosebank, we held a research discussion to prime our community for storyboarding a manuscript.

Liz Dom, JHB Chapter organiser, had the opportunity to attend @OpenIDEO's Gather 2019 where the intention was to plot the future of our global community.

Here are her insights on how experiences, when deliberately designed, can transform communities. https://t.co/tWqQHdAhPj

@OIJHBChapter @TshimologongIT @OpenIDEO .Ending this great experience on a high note with our team prototype. Resin made from #nikegrind materials for 3D printing houses. Including a hammock for outside design thinking sessions 😜

[OpenIDEOJHBChapter @OIJHBChapter]

Things are getting creative out here at the #DesignwithGrind challenge at @TshimologongIT. 😂👌

[OpenIDEOJHBChapter @OIJHBChapter]

We've begun prototyping and are finalising business models - the #DesignwithGrind ideas need to be scalable - next up, pitching.

[OpenIDEOJHBChapter @OIJHBChapter]

A full house at the @OpenIDEO #DesignwithGrind challenge! We're so proud to host our participants at @TshimologongIT - the perfect venue sponsor for a challenge like this.

[OpenIDEOJHBChapter @OIJHBChapter]

We've introduced the #DesignwithGrind challenge and now participants are discussing their ideas.

There's no shortage of bright minds here!

[OpenIDEOJHBChapter @OIJHBChapter]

We've got a full house for tomorrow's #DesignwithGrind OpenIDEO global challenge - thanks to all who registered!

We look forward to hosting you at @TshimologongIT from 6PM, teaching you about the circular economy and prototyping a solution.

@chantallouw_ Unfortunately we're the only Chapter in South Africa at the moment but we're sure a Cape Town arm's to follow in the future. 🙂

[OpenIDEOJHBChapter @OIJHBChapter]

Join us for an exciting designathon on Tue, 24 April, 6PM!
