Co-design

Co-design involves working closely with different stakeholders, including residents, communities, project partners, and others who need to be part of the transformation of homes. This ensures that the solutions are responsive to needs rather than assumptions. This highly participatory approach ensures that solutions are co-created with communities, reflecting experiences and valued knowledge of place and home. This is integral to both the development of demonstration homes and design of the catalogue of solutions.

Skills and training

Training programmes are being evaluated to enable the enhancement of skills of different stakeholders to transform homes. This includes technical training for industry professionals to equip them with the skills needed to implement and maintain solutions, as well as seminars and workshops tailored to diverse groups. This approach ensures that stakeholders, from policymakers to community members, gain relevant knowledge and skills to support and sustain the design and implementation of innovative solutions to transform homes going forward.
