SEE is a network of eleven European partners sharing knowledge and experience on how design can be integrated into regional and national policies to boost innovation, sustainability and social and economic development.

It has launched its second Policy Booklet: "Realising Sustainability and Innovation through Design: Making it Happen in Communities, Industry, Public Sector and Policy-Making."

The understanding and application of sustainability and innovation are expanding, as is the extent of the interconnectivity between the two. In both the private and public sector, design is emerging as the interface between sustainability and innovation as a tool that can engage stakeholders and align economic, social and environmental considerations. Design can contribute to fostering a culture of sustainability and innovation in communities, industry, the public sector and policy-making using creative and user-centred processes.

Since policies for sustainability and innovation are expected to serve an increasing array of purposes, this second SEE Policy Booklet aims to demonstrate how design can incite a sustainable and innovative mindset among all players in society. For communities, industry, public sector and policy-making the publication outlines the rationale behind policy intervention, explores how design can be employed to realise sustainability and innovation, provides illustrative case studies and puts forward policy proposals.
