Welcome to the Design Computation Wiki. We are a free semantic framework for design and computation theories, applications, relevant scientific research and associated technologies. Design Computation is written collaboratively by expert volunteers. Any invited collaborator with Internet access can write and make changes to wiki articles, except in limited cases where editing is restricted to prevent disruption or vandalism.
We run regular meetings and workshops on a number of topics. Please subscribe to the Meetup Group. One of the ways to explore the wiki is to research the categories.
To participate, please consult the Design Computation Manual of Style for information on formatting pages. Please consult the Mediawiki User's Guide for information on using the wiki software.

Critical Global Challenges
Some of the global challenges we are facing are Sustainability, with most sustainability issues require systemic change, and systemic change requires collaboration among all of us to attain positive sustainability changes.
Global Health deals with the fact that one billion people lack access to health care systems and this can be eliminated by design.
Cultural Understanding is the the foundation of communication and the ability of standing back from ourselves and becoming aware of our cultural values, beliefs and perceptions.
Justice and Equality challenges are about braking down the barriers that people face to just solutions and equality of opportunity.
Human Wellbeing looks beyond traditional definitions of health and examines the wide range of disciplines that contribute to our sense of wellbeing.
