This course will focus on a social challenge in Monaghan. To define the challenge it will focus on, we will start by exploring the challenges in your local area. Can you think of a social challenge you want to tackle? Is it a new challenge facing your community, or maybe an old issue that you feel needs a fresh approach.

Our Design Thinking training teaches valuable skills that can be used to create people-centred, innovative plans in response to challenges or opportunities like the one above. You will also have access to 1-on-1 mentoring from your trainer and co-trainer. Co-trainers are volunteers from your county with knowledge and/or experience in community action.


Innovating Communities courses are led by Design Thinking experts and community volunteer 'co-trainers' to help training teams tackle projects like these.

Group sessions will take place every Monday morning between 12.10am and 1.10am.
