A note from Joanna Frank, President and CEO, Center for Active Design

In two weeks, we will mark the beginning of the third year of the pandemic. If 2020 was the year we naively opined about getting back to normal, then 2021 has been the year we’ve only just begun emotionally and physically reckoning with our changing world. And it is my sincere hope that in 2022, we meet the moment not only with renewed optimism, but with a detailed plan for pursuing the possibilities that come with more human-centric design.

Next year should be about building on our success as an organization known for its translation of public health research into practical design and operation. And perhaps most importantly, it should be focused on taking greater strides in building a people-focused movement behind total market transformation.

A global pandemic has revealed our vulnerabilities, interconnectivity, and the need for an integrated approach to building health for all. Which begs the question — what’s next?
