Co-design is designing with, not for. It's about making things and learning together.

Co-design is a movement, mindset (read more) and an expanding set of methods and tools.

Co-design challenges the power of individuals who make important decisions about others' lives, livelihoods and bodies. Often with little to no involvement of the people who those decisions will most impact. Co-design is about working with the people closest to the solutions, prioritising relationships, being honest, making sure people feel welcome, using creative tools, balancing idealism and realism, building and sharing skills. Co-design uses inclusive facilitation that welcomes and works with many ways of knowing, being and doing.

Co-design has a 'co' bit (e.g. community, co-operation) and a 'design' bit. Both bits (community and design) are important but neither have all the answers.

There are many histories and many practices of co-design.

What are the principles for co-design?

There are many ways to work together. Here are four principles for effective co-design.

We believe the principles for co-design also matter for other 'co' things, too: planning, delivery and evaluation
(Figure 2).

How can I tell if it's co-design?

Ask these questions to determine if something is co-design. And know that because something isn't co-design doesn't automatically make it less useful, inclusive or worthwhile.

Co-design isn't the only way or always the best way.

How is co-design different from other approaches?

There are lots of different ways to work together. Co-design and human-centred design aren't the same.
If you're not doing co-design, don't say that you are.
The table below describes different design and participation approaches. We say who gets a say and who doesn't. We can design at people, for people, with people - or be led by.

These things are transactional at best, harmful, degrading and violent at worst

Approach

Keywords

Where power is held

Designing at people

Designer, professional or policy-maker as expert, top-down decision-making

Designing at people is about what decision-makers and designers think and want.

Designing for people

Design thinking, anything 'centred' e.g. human-centred (HCD), user-centred (UCD), patient-centred, citizen-centred design etc.

Designing for people is about what designers and decision-makers want to know and achieve. Good intent usually ends up as system-centred, designer-centred, executive-centred or staff-centred by implementation.

These things are transformational at best, however they are not inherently inclusive or equitable

Designing with people and planet

Co-design, participatory design, deliberative democracy

Designing with people is about what matters to people with lived experience and decision-makers (co-decided).

Led by the people

Co-production, community-led design, citizen movements, design justice*

Led by the people is about what people, families and communities want for themselves.

Kelly Ann McKercher, 2020

*As described in the Design Justice Principles and Design Justice by Sasha Costanza-Chock.

What is the 'social movement' part of co-design?

To make co-design a reality, we need systems, organisations and communities to embrace the leadership and contributions of people with lived experience. Doing that requires different ways of thinking and being, which are missing from many teams, organisations and systems. The table below describes several social movements that are necessary to make co-design a reality and a norm.

Making decisions for people with lived experience

Making decisions with people with lived experience

Valuing professional expertise above all

Valuing professional and lived experience equally

Seeing marginalised people as a burden

Seeing marginalised people as resilient, creative and capable

Colonising, heteronormative and ableist systems

Compassionate systems that see and respond to dimensions of difference

Believing that resources are scarce to make change

Seeing an abundance of experience, ideas and energy for change

Focusing on 'consumer' councils and committees

Embedding participation in everyday practice

Rushing to solutions

Slowing down to listen, connect and learn

McKercher, K. A. (2020). Beyond Sticky Notes. Doing Co-design for real: mindsets, methods and movements.

What are the conditions for co-design?

Co-design can be derailed through a lack of sponsorship, resources or a lack of broader organisational or community commitment. Here are some conditions that can support co-design.

We need people to endorse and reinforce the approach we're taking and the outcomes we want to achieve. Sponsors and supporters help to build commitment, remove obstacles and overcome resistance as and when it arises.

To do co-design we need time and money for:
Facilitation and convening (co-design is not free)
Paying people with lived experience for their time and for any expenses
Investing in approaches (after they have been co-designed)
Supporting lived experience capability and leadership
Prototyping, testing and learning (prior to implementation)
Communicating the work throughout to build commitment

3 Culture and climate

4 Commitments

Supportive culture and climate includes:
Authorising environments from formal and informal leaders
A focus on learning not control
Connective tissue to share learning, failure, success
Support to adopt the mindsets, especially when we regress to old ways of being
Support to develop the skillsets for co-design
Accountability to the people we engage through
co-design (they can call us out)

Commitment to co-design looks like:
Focusing on outcomes (value) over outputs (busyness)
Following through into implementation
Staying committed to elevating the voice and contribution of lived experience
Practising cultural intelligence and widening inclusion
Partnering, not parenting
Sharing decision making, power and attribution
Value and reciprocity with co-designers
