Never before this has the design world needed to pivot as responsively to remote ways of working. With the precautions for COVID-19 ruling out in-person gatherings for many workplaces, one of the more challenging activities to deliver is the beloved practice of co-design.

In this webinar, we share ways of planning and facilitating a design workshop over video conference, including:
