Talks

From time to time, I share what I learn in my applied research about design and fragile contexts: from service and systemic design topics to new forms of environmental stewardship, social entrepreneurship, or simply what it means living and working in a remote area.

If you’d like me to speak for your audience, please email me@ivanprovenzale.com
