Project H: Design Revolution Road Show

Project H's Design Revolution Road Show is making a stop at CCS on April 1, 2010. Here's a link to a great NYT piece about Emily Pilloton about how and why she started Project H.

Here's a description of the project:
"The Design Revolution Road Show is a traveling exhibition and lecture series bringing “product design that empowers” to 25 high schools and university design programs across the nation in the Spring of 2010. A Project H Design initiative, the road show will feature a biodiesel-powered truck and Airstream trailer exhibition of 40 humanitarian design solutions that have been showcased in the book Design Revolution: 100 Products that Empower People.

The programming will bring the evidence of and tools for design for social impact to the doorsteps of students, with the ultimate goal of enabling and empowering the next generation of creative problem-solvers to apply their skills to the world’s most pressing problems and improve life on a global scale.

We believe design can change the world. Come and see how."
