The next step for DESIS is to create Thematic Clusters: groups of design teams, based on different DESIS Labs, working on similar topics. Their aim is to build arenas for discussing on-going projects, comparing tools and results, and where new joint initiatives can be started.

A Network on Design for Social Innovation and Sustainability in Europe
Press release:
Social innovation is pointed by all part as the next source of inspiration and force of implementation towards new and more sustainable ways of living. But if everybody from public authorities to business sector seem to be convinced that true social shift away from mainstream consumption society can only start at a local level the question of scaling-up remains: how to step forward from promising micro-experimentations to sustainable macro-transformations of places?
