Design for Social Innovation

Design Research

Aalto Global Impact, Zambia — A Zambian social enterprise Trinity Super Nutrition wanted to bring nutritious food to all Zambians. My team found out that the biggest obstacle to achieving this was introducing an unfamiliar way of cooking beans. Therefore, we suggested consumer research that is based on design probes.

Monikulttuurinen.fi — For my bachelor's thesis, I extensively researched racism in working life, and how to improve teams' cultural competence. The outcome was a website, which was published by the Finnish Confederation of Professionals STTK. The website was created for STTK's labour unions but will help any teams to do preventative anti-racist actions.
