About

Not as designers alone, nor as firms or groups or even regions, can we design, develop and deliver all the products needed for the "Other 90%"--  those underserved, poor, developing, and emerging communities.  It takes collaboration, cooperation and a global network of creatives to rise together to the challenge.  

  1. Awareness:  Who needs us and what products are they asking for?
  2. Assembly:  Who are we, collectively, and how can we work together?
  3. Action:  What are we going to do, and how do we deliver it?

Designfluence is one.  Who would like to join us?  We invite Paul Polak, Design That Matters, The Cooper-Hewitt Museum, KickStart, and others here on W.E. and elsewhere.  

  • Designfluence would like to train a billion designers.
  • What would you like to do?
