Why design?

Because people

Through design, you create services and solutions that meet the specific needs and expectations of people in your area.

By involving local residents, businesses and other stakeholders in the design process, you ensure that your services are user-centred, efficient and effective.
Design also helps you identify opportunities for innovation and collaboration, leading to more sustainable and resilient services and increased vitality.

Overall, design can help you create public services that better serve people around the world and contribute to economic and social development.

Because society

Designing public services builds a user-centred approach that puts citizens' needs and expectations first.

This leads to more efficient and effective services that better meet citizens' needs.
It develops the right solutions to identified challenges, thus increasing satisfaction and trust in public institutions.

By involving citizens in the design process, design promotes transparency and accountability, as well as a sense of ownership and participation in the development of public services.
