This experimental work proposes responses to 3 research questions:
1) How may we reconstitute design to construct robust models of social enterprise in the service of community regeneration and sustainment?
2) How may the role of design and the education of design evolve to support the long term development of social enterprise within regenerating communities?
3) How may we best disseminate the knowledge gained both for the greater benefit of subject of the research and society as a whole?

The work was an invited keynote presentation at the Helen Hamlyn Centre for Design Include 2011 Conference at the Royal College of Art, 18-20 April 2011
