Our solution

FIDS FOR KIDS

Powered by the principles of design thinking, Design for Change offers a simple 4 step framework FIDS (Feel-Imagine-Do-Share)- to unleash the I CAN superpower in every child.

Using this framework, children are encouraged to ‘FEEL’ (observe and identify any situation that bothers them), ‘IMAGINE’ (brainstorm a way to make it better), ‘DO’ (work in teams to implement their solution) and finally, ‘SHARE’ (their solution of change with the world) to inspire others to say, ‘I CAN’!
