Looking through the current AIGA site this evening, I am happy to forward the links for two socially-orientated initiatives the Academy now runs.
The AIGA Center for Sustainable Design: dedicated to providing designers with a wide range of information regarding sustainable business practice. Through case studies, interviews, resources and discourse, this site will encourage and support designers as they incorporate sustainable thinking into their professional lives.
Design For Democracy: increasing civic participation by making the experience clearer, more understandable, easier to accomplish and more trustworthy.
