The Design Kit Methods
The Design Kit Methods from IDEO.org offers a rich collection of human-centred design tools that can help student leaders develop problem-solving, empathy, and creative thinking skills. These methods guide students through key phases of the design process, such as discovering insights, generating ideas, and testing solutions, making them ideal for leadership programs focused on social impact or student-led projects. With clear instructions and a focus on collaboration, this resource supports young leaders to design with purpose and lead change in their school or community.
