The Goal for the Day

Our goal was for each team to showcase what they had learned about their customer and their challenge and how the team developed a possible solution that they believed the customer would like.

At the end of the day our aim was to bring together all the work from the previous 2 days into a compelling pitch that showed the discovery and design story and demonstrated a potential solution to their challenge.

Day 3 Special Visitor

Lauren Resnick, Activation Officer of the City of Stirling, was on site day 3 assisting students with their delivery and pitches. Lauren spoke to the team about her role on the Council and commended the students for participating in and unpacking solutions to the problems that she faces every day in her work.

Lauren has a clear vision for Stirling and in a recent interview in the Stirling Times, she clearly outlines some strong vision to help rectify issues in the area.

From the May edition of the Stirling Times, Stirling activation officer Lauren Resnick said the concept of place activation was about getting people to “linger for longer” in an area. Place activation is all about enriching and enlivening a community area, it’s about getting people to linger for longer, spending more time on footpaths, outside businesses, having events and generally engaging in the community and making it more liveable and vibrant, she said. The City has pledged to work with community group Main Street Co-op to improve the street and get more residents and business owners involved in the process.

Lauren catches up with Communications Team members Brianna and Arianne in time for a short interview.
