Design, at its core, is problem-solving. We are presented with a problem and use our talents to solve it. Design is usually thought of as a profession. However, many designers and creative thinkers are using design-thinking to solve social issues. Generate: Social Change is a platform for designers and creatives to discuss and share with other forward-thinkers who want to see a more sustainable world.

Generate: Social Change is a panel discussion with 5 panelists coming from varying backgrounds which opens up more possibilities for how you can instigate genuine social good.
* Margret Brown is currently the Graphic Design Manager at Keen, Inc. of Portland.
* Michael Etter is the founder of re:active, a nonprofit design education program for underserved youth.
* Dee Lieber is the founder of Sol Identity, a multi-disciplinary consultancy providing values-driven brand messaging and design for a more livable future.
* Paul Souders designs websites for Portland-based Mercy Corps, a global relief and development non-profit.
* Ryan Weisgerber, Ideas with Heart. Ryan is a graphic designer that works with a group of affiliated organizations that are engaged in activist philanthropy, both in the political and private sectors.
