dc.descriptionDesign thinking initiatives are open-ended and unpredictable: a challenge for AR4D institutions. A project team of the Alliance of Bioversity and CIAT (ABC) experimented with a hybrid approach, featuring both scientific methodologies and design thinking tools. This Info Note tackles the main lessons learnt from this initiative, such as: • Sequence is key, and large-scale surveys might be wasted is applied too early in the iterative process; • Budget and time need to be invested in staff/ design team training and continuous engagement; • Reflection and communication formats need to be adapted and recognized by all team members; and • Good practice is to embed design thinking initiatives in larger programs that can continue the process.
