Participate in Design (P!D)
| Our Participatory Design Expert |
Participate in Design (P!D) is a registered non-profit design, planning and educational organisation that helps neighbourhoods and public institutions in Singapore design community-owned spaces and solutions.
With over 9 years of community design experience, they are dedicated to engaging and enabling people in shaping their everyday environments and local communities. Founded on the firm belief that everyone has the right to participate in, and influence the design and planning processes that affect them, P!D provides services in the design and facilitation of public participation and engagement process concerning the built environment.
P!D was founded in 2013 to expand on the participatory design work that its founders, Jan Lim and Mizah Rahman, have been doing since 2010. They have since partnered with grassroots organisations, educational institutions and statutory boards in various initiatives to build engaged and empowered communities. They research, test and develop socially just and inclusive methods of design that are appropriate for our local neighbourhoods, while promoting the integration of participatory design in design education and practice.
