Greater Shepparton Visitor Centre hosts a display of work by students from RMIT University Industrial Design program featuring the Grow Shepp project.
The Grow Shepp project engages students from Industrial Design, Architecture and Landscape Architecture with complex community problems. Utilising co-design tactics, systems thinking intervention, on the ground learning and cross disciplinary rigour, this teaching model demonstrates to students an industry and community led approach to community engagement and co-design. The Industrial Design program has been working with key stakeholders in Shepparton, Victoria for six months studying ways to reimagine the food system as a "food hub".
The project involves creation of masterplans, business models and service activation plans based on the local engagement of Industry and Non-for-profit stakeholders towards developing a former industrial site as an on-going Innovation, Enterprise and Cultural District around Food Innovation.
