Are you a socially conscious designer, non-profit, individual or organization who believes social change can happen through design?

I am, and many of my friends have similar concerns. I think Design21 is great. Design21: Social Design Network’s mission is “to inspire social activism through design. We connect people who want to explore ways design can positively impact our many worlds, and who want to create change here, now”

I think this quote from Buckminster Fuller says it all: “The best way to predict the future is to design it.”
