Organiser Social label
Organiser of In-house Lecture Social label (Salone del Mobile)
Design creates socio economic opportunities for disadvantaged persons in the ‘working world’. Social label is a new ‘work concept’ for people with a distance to the labour market. Social label involves designers, companies (social firms), healthcare and governmental organisations for new possibilities.
The Social label foundation is about more than making appealing products for the public. To support the Social label product we are establishing a platform for quality. So we can put the makers’ talents on display. To make people proud of they are and what they make. The products help us tell the stories of these workers and get the audience involved. We are creating an appealing (work) environment to create new opportunities.
We call it socio-economics.
