Sharing Experience Europe - Policy Innovation Design
Library of Case Studies
This section of the SEE library is a collection of experiences about design programmes and practices. It gathers together three types of case studies:
- Examples of design promotion practice, which include methods for promoting design to the general public and fostering the best use of design tools among business and public sectors
- Models for the provision of design support service for companies, in particular SMEs
- Examples of design education programmes for design professionals (e.g. training on new design disciplines; development of design firms’ competencies)
Moreover, this library aims to highlight examples of government policies and programmes where design and innovation are clearly linked.
