What is design thinking?

Design for Life gives decision-makers in low- and middle-income countries the tools they need to use design thinking to develop resilient supply chains.

Design thinking is a problem-solving methodology that involves setting aside everyday constraints, assumptions and paradigms. Rather than planning around those, participants iterate on a thoughtful, multi-threaded, empathetic solution. Design thinking can help people and organizations develop and implement innovative solutions that better meet people’s needs.
