“Looking at groups that are otherwise considered invisible is a challenge worth designing for. It helps you look beyond the tick-box culture and to truly design with a more empathetic approach.”

Team

CORE.01

The Glasgow School of Art - Scotland

Team Core.01 is a multidisciplinary team from The Glasgow School of Art with a common interest in developing innovative solutions for a better future. Their different backgrounds allow them to see a problem through different points of view. The Challenge not only presented an opportunity to work in healthcare but also a platform to make their ideas visible to professionals. It challenged them to work with others, hear new ideas, debate different perspectives, and find out what each member was good at.
