“…Another strategy to approach the socio-economic issues related to BoP population is the use of social innovation toolsthrough the development of public policies or fostering the development of novel social forms and competitive advantages that promote social inclusion and improvement in living conditions (Bevilacqua & Ou, 2018;Cazini & Frasson, 2011;Gürdere Akdur & Kaygan, 2019;Souza Costa et al, 2011).…”

The authors conducted a systematic literature review of articles that described projects focused on resolving social issues, frequently associated with the terms base/bottom of the pyramid (BoP), social entrepreneurship and social innovation. Projects are classified accordingly to the source of the idea (top down or bottom up) and the project type (commercial, creative, assistance, collaboration, entrepreneurial or cooperative). They are also compared considering target population, socio-economic context, geography, motivation, critical success factors (CSF), enablers and barriers. The results indicate that most projects are top down, creative or commercial, connected to social innovation or social entrepreneurship approaches, implemented on European countries, aiming at solving local issues related to the management of rural and urban territories, healthcare, education or energy. The themes mostly associated with social projects are territory management and transition to renewable energies. BoP-related projects are almost inexistent, and so are projects aiming at povertyrelated issues. Nonetheless, the CSF encountered in these projects are very similar to the ones reported in BoP literature, mainly including legitimacy with local communities, network building, strategic partnerships, development of local capabilities, and access to resourcesfinancial, technological, human and material.

Social design produces strategic, systematic solutions or new cultures as a response to the complexity of social changes and, in consequence, designers who are used to the traditional way of ideation may not be well prepared for the requirements of social design. This paper identified the characteristics of the concept generation of industrial design students participating in a social design practice as novices. Using the think-aloud protocol, we collected the conversations and self-reports of students (n = 42). We then conducted a qualitative analysis of the designers' activities with the inductive and deductive coding method. An effect of prior knowledge was found on the themes of concept, as well as on the concept generation strategies and modes that industrial designers would prefer. Through a factor analysis of the frequency of students' design activities, six concept generation strategies were clustered. There were eight concept generation modes for social design we summarized with the journeys of designers' activities. This study also revealed the effect of concept generation strategies and modes of industrial design students on the quality of their social design concepts. The results may also shed light on the question how we can foster the quality of industrial designers to adapt to the extension of disciplinary boundary in design.
