Invitation to social initiatives supporting Ukraine: Join our innovation program as a project partner

From mid-April to August 2022, HPI School of Design Thinking will run its regular top-notch Design Thinking program that equips students with a mindset and tools to drive transformation processes in business and society. Six teams will work for 16 weeks on six Design Challenges submitted by partners from business, society, and politics. While learning, the students conduct extensive research and develop innovative ideas to tackle the partner’s challenge.

This summer term, one project slot shall be donated and offered free of charge to a social initiative supporting the people of Ukraine. At the HPI D-School, we stand for peaceful collaboration and co-creation, for human-centeredness, and diversity. We stand in solidarity with the people of Ukraine and the civil society in Russia bravely protesting against the actions of their government. Therefore, we have reserved one slot in our portfolio for a partner that is sharing our values and needs active help and some extra brains.

To apply as a potential project partner to complete our portfolio, we kindly ask you to fill out the below form until April 4th, 2022 and give us basic information about the design challenge that you would like to work on with a student team.

For more information, please visit our website. Should you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact projects-d-school@hpi.de.
