Whats the goal of Pausa Design?
Pausa Design aims to bring NGOs closer to the Design World.
Design is usually associated to commercial companies and luxury while forgetting that we can also work in more real and urgent problems in a very concrete way.
On the other hand NGOs have a lot of experience working on these urgente problems but they ususally lack the necessary tools for innovation.
Pausa Design wants to demonstrate that Design tools can be really useful if applied to this kind of projects.
