About

UNESCO Creative Cities (UNESCO Cities of Design) are collecting case studies in order to share information on design education and learning. The focus is on children and youth. The cities are requested to share experiences and lessons learned with each other. Collecting the case studies aims to initiate design educational “city experiments” with schools within the creative cities. The case studies will be published here on this very website.

There are two case studies available right now that explain how a Design Education project is done in Helsinki. The first case study is called “City as Designer – Children’s Urban Research Lab”, the second “Playground Equipment Lehnding Service”. More cases are coming soon.
