2010 Projects

In 2010, there were 11 collaborative projects led by 13 design graduates of the Royal College of Art, who worked with a industry, government and voluntary sector partners. 

­­All projects were co-funded by external partners and the Helen Hamlyn Trust. UK Research Councils as well as our first Fulbright Scholar from the US formed part of the programme. The work concluded with a symposium and exhibition entitled The Lives of Others in September 2010.
