- Put together a 'crappy unusable stuff' museum

 

- Learn about the Indian government's National Design Policy

 

- Debate on the limitations of the 'jugaad' approach

 

-- Conduct more such activities(not necessarily as huge as WUD :D) at colleges, where there is almost no stress anytime on the Designer point of view, they are trained to be coder like bread and butter for the industry(though acceptable to an extent). Somewhere on the lines of Param, the alternative career thought.

 

- Take up design excercise of process/product/any unusable element in the city with the twin aims of perpetuating usability to the larger audience(many things can get kick started from here...) and connecting to our Usability peers and working/interacting/learning from them.
