Yonsei-INDEX Design to Improve Life Summer School (YIDSS) was a unique partnership between Yonsei University in Seoul, South Korea and INDEX: Design to Improve Life in Denmark. The goal of the YIDSS program was to educate students to become agents of change in cross-cultural and cross-disciplinary contexts. The aim of the learning process was to give the students the methodology needed to understand large-scale challenges and the tools to be part of solving these.

I, invited as the core faculty of the program, developed the Design Ethnography course as an elective.
