Workshop with young people from the design school

Design School Kolding

Design School Kolding will be among the leaders in social design research, with special emphasis on co-design and universal design. The school works from the approach that design should be for everyone and must support that all people have an equal framework for a good life.

The partnership between Design School Kolding unfolds in two main efforts within Universal Design and the Leave no one behind agenda:

Implementation of universal design in education
research and knowledge generation of universal design at Design School Kolding.

The ambition is clear: Design School Kolding will be a leader in social design research. The partnership with the Bevica Foundation ensures a special focus on universal design in the work, where the goal is that universal design becomes a natural part of the students' mindset.

The collaboration includes teaching, workshops and research activities, where user organizations such as Danish Disability Organizations (DH) and another of the foundation's partners, the Association of Young People with Disabilities (SUMH), contribute valuable insights.

‍

The partnership is part of the Bevica Foundation's strategy to strengthen knowledge and practice in universal design through education and research and runs until the end of 2025.
