The Aftermath of Innovation

What is the true cost as innovations are being scaled at warp speed? Kim Dabbs explores how we can use design thinking to create a new framework for social impact that fosters equity and justice.

Kim Dabbs is a social entrepreneur, advocate and innovator who currently serves as executive director of the West Michigan Center for Arts + Technology (WMCAT). Her transformation of traditional educational models through design thinking earned her an invitation to participate in a 3-month residency at Stanford’s d.school in 2015. She has spoken on social impact design at the Aspen Institute and the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum and is a guest author for Edutopia.
