Design thinking is a user-centered approach that has been gaining popularity in recent years for its ability to drive innovation and solve complex problems. The International Trade Centre, through the Gambia Youth Empowerment Project, has recently invested in this methodology by providing a 9-month certification program for 16 individuals to become design thinking trainers.

Facilitated by the Design Thinking Ghana Hub and Design Thinkers Group USA, a global design thinking consulting organization, the trainers graduated from the program with the knowledge, skills and tools to support companies and start-up businesses in their quest to drive innovation and solve complex problems using the Human Centered Design methodology.

The use of design thinking can be applied in various industries and sectors, including business, education, healthcare, and more. It involves empathizing with the people you are designing for, defining their needs, ideating solutions, prototyping, and testing. With this approach, organizations can improve their products and services, create new business models, and develop new strategies for growth.
