Case Studies

Community-Based Design in Action

SEED® case studies feature how communities and designers have been using the SEED Evaluator as a tool in building sustainable, inclusive practices. Projects selected for inclusion are selected from exceptional practices. As the SEED Network grows, case studies will feature a wealth of exemplary project submissions and demonstration studies from the field including narrative texts and documentary photography, diagrams as well as interviews as available.
