Aspen Design Summit 2009:"AIGA and Winterhouse Institute are joining forces to stage the Aspen Design Summit in November 2009 and galvanize the global design community to engage in projects that promote social change. The goal is to foster collaboration and collective action among the participants to utilize the power of design to help solve large social problems. This summit is supported by the Rockefeller Foundation through a grant to develop collective action and collaboration for social impact involving the design profession as catalysts for solutions. This is not a conference. Instead we envision a select group of 60 designers, change leaders, NGOs, foundations and experts coming together to engage actively in opportunities to demonstrate design thinking in crafting solutions for large social problems, as well as to use existing networks and programs to accelerate change. Aspen will provide a unique, intimate setting for this work. The Aspen Design Summit is by invitation only. We ask that visitors to this site refrain from disseminating the url."
