Strategic Design provides the perspectives and tools needed to drive a shift in product design practice out of the mindset of a linear economy and towards a whole-of-life, stewardship approach. Strategic Design tools help position the design activity within a broader systems context, connecting design decisions made within the organisation with the impacts felt in society and the natural environment.
The Product Stewardship Centre of Excellence is an independent, not for profit charity, that seeks to reduce waste generation and create positive environmental and social outcomes through sustainable design, resource conservation, reuse, repair, and recycling. The Centre helps businesses, industries, and product stewardship organisations to adopt a strong lifecycle approach to deliver their ESG and circular economy objectives. We also provide independent advice on product stewardship priorities to the Australian government.
