What will we do? Our aims include: • use design to solve the social challenges faced by Dundee; • develop local design talent through supportive commissioning and procurement; • embrace design principles in our work, from designing new projects to redesigning existing approaches; • build in regular evaluations of major activities and events, applying a design approach to ensure we always look for improvements, particularly in terms of social impact; • use our resources to promote designers working with, or linked to, our organisation; • work collaboratively with Dundee city partners across the public, private and third sectors to create international partnerships with the other UNESCO Cities of Design;
