Practical Guide to Design Thinking : A collection of Methods to rethink Social Change The use of creative concepts and innovative methods, often referred to as Design Thinking, was for a long time a niche practice for nerdy innovators, or designers. Overtime it has evolved into an approach applied by professionals from different fields and industries. The Gender Unit of the Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung (FES), India Office took up the challenge of applying Design Thinking with partner organizations in the social rather than the usual business-oriented framework. A Practical Guide to Design Thinking gives you an insight into the process, the strengths, and specific challenges of the approach. It features experiences from the FES partner organizations and offers a practical guide to some of the methods that have been used throughout the process.
