SocialDesignSite.com is a non-profit organisation that aims to foster a discourse on social design through our international online platform and the organization of and participation in projects, exhibitions, conferences, lectures, etc. 1. The first purpose of SocialDesignSite is to create awareness on social design: We as individuals have social interactions everyday. We are not alone on a deserted island. We cannot not be social. Therefore we should be aware of the fact that we have the opportunity to choose our actions in everyday life.
We have the choice between following the same habits, customs and lanes we did in the past or to change them. Every new day we could do things differently than we have done it before. 2. 3. 4. We cannot not change the world. We are used to believing the opposite, that we cannot change the world, being the humble individuals we are. We as people cannot escape acting in relation to other people. Movement Strategy Center. Center for Community Change. National Organizers Alliance.
