Our Mission and Vision



Our Mission

To advance the field of design service and social innovation through rigorous research, practical applications, and interdisciplinary collaboration. We strive to be a leading platform for sharing knowledge that empowers communities and fosters sustainable development.


Our mission encompasses three key pillars: First, the journal facilitates groundbreaking research that bridges theory and practice in design service and social innovation. Second, it promotes methodological innovations that enhance the impact of design interventions in communities. Third, it will foster global dialogue between academics, practitioners, and community stakeholders.


We are committed to maintaining high standards of scholarly rigor while ensuring that our publications remain accessible and relevant to practitioners working directly in communities. Through our peer-review process and editorial guidance, we support both established researchers and emerging voices in the field.


Our Vision

To create a world where design thinking and service innovation are integral to solving complex social challenges, leading to more equitable, resilient, and thriving communities worldwide. We envision a future where our journal plays a pivotal role in shaping this transformation.


We aspire to be the premier publication that catalyzes meaningful change through design service and social innovation. Our vision includes building a diverse, inclusive community of scholars and practitioners who collaborate across disciplines, cultures, and geographic boundaries.


By 2030, we aim to be recognized as the most influential journal in design service and social innovation, known for publishing research that directly contributes to achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals. We envision our published works inspiring new generations of design thinkers and social innovators while providing practical frameworks for addressing global challenges.
