Who you will work with

You will work in an open group of people from different backgrounds.

What you will leave with

Experience and concrete findings

Take away a chosen topic, insights from initial interviews and a decision on what is worth testing next.

A clearer view of your role

With your guides, identify how you contribute and what you want to use in your work or next career stage.

How the programme works

The Workshop includes the four-hour Spark and continues with initial fieldwork. It forms the first day of the Camp; prototype design and testing come on later days.

  1. Choose your own topic

    Start with your interests and abilities. As a team, choose a problem and prepare questions for the people affected.

  2. Go out and meet people

    In initial interviews, find out whether others actually experience the problem. Compare their experience with your assumptions.

  3. Process your initial findings

    Separate findings from assumptions. Examine collaboration with your guides and choose the next step.

Tools in practice

Use the tools on your own topic. We will examine what you learn together.

Four connected areas of personal purpose and contribution.

Ikigai

Connect your interests and abilities with where you can be useful to others.

Value Proposition Canvas
