Design HOPES (Healthy Organisations in a Place-based Ecosystem, Scotland) is a two-year transdisciplinary research project that exploits the potential of design-led thinking and making to innovate and tackle multifaceted health delivery challenges to meet urgent Net Zero goals for a sustainable health and social care system.
Design HOPES £4.625M Green Transition Ecosystems (GTEs) Hub is part of the flagship funding strand of the £25M AHRC Future Observatory: Design the Green Transition programme.
This project will create new opportunities to support both existing services and new design-led health innovations in collaboration with NHS Boards across Scotland, the Scottish Government, patient and public representatives, health and social care partners, the third sector, academia and industry.
Design HOPES aims to be an internationally recognised centre of excellence, promoting and embedding best practice through collaborative design-led thinking and making approaches to build a more equitable and sustainable health and social care system.
