Connecting people - Introducing Design@WUR

Many people across WUR work on design: from remaking landscapes to farm technologies, food, and tools to maintain biodiversity, and more. We aim to connect these various people and have started the Design@WUR initiative. In this session we will introduce the initiative and give a taste from a range of current design work and reflect on designing at WUR.
