Our first meeting.

We first met up on Thursday the 17th. We began by speaking to each other and getting to know them and their strengths. We also made some plans as to how we were going to go about starting our project. We decided that for the following Thursday we would all do some of our own personal research in the area that we had chosen and come back to the group with with some knowledge in this area and a few ideas as to how this could be made into a product or service. This would allow us to gain a wider range of knowledge quickly and work as a team.

Areas chosen were:

Social sustainability and design

Climate change and design

Ethical labour and design

Fair trade and design

Green wash and design

Up-cycling / down-cycling / re-cycling and design
