17. The Institute without Boundaries
The Institute without Boundaries is a Toronto-based studio that works
towards collaborative design action and seeks to achieve social,
ecological and economic innovation.
Founded in 2003, the Institute consists of a post-graduate program
that teaches collaborative design strategy to professionals from
diverse backgrounds, a research division that develops projects
around curriculum projects and a commercial division that delivers
professional design consultation based on Institute methods.
At the Institute we see the designer as a problem solver with the
ability to effect positive change for humanity. We are a place
where students, teachers, industry and community experts can
come together not only as creators and designers, but as
ambassadors of hope. We imagine how to live, learn, work,
and play together as a global community and seek alternative
development patterns and a viable path to a bright future.
