During this session, we want to Kick-off the new Design Sprint to create a concept for a digital solution, that helps people all over the world who are affected by urbanization. The program wants to support people that live in poverty or in a right-free environment or that are threatened. We are happy for having speakers from NGOs that can help us to understand main issues. We will present our Design Thinking approach for the next three months. Background: The United Nations identified seventeen sustainable development goals to protect our resources and improve living conditions for all. Sustainable development requires cooperation between governments, economy and civil society built upon a shared vision and shared goals. In this context world shaping means to work interdisciplinary and develop digital products that contribute to a sustainable future. World shaping events mobilize and bring together motivated members of our society to take action in shaping the future of our planet. The main objective of the World Shaping program is to combine sustainable development expertise with digital knowledge into a platform for innovative ideas and concepts. The ultimate goal of the project is to find digital solutions to help experts or institutions to better achieve the sustainable development goals.
