The "Tool-house for the Future" workshop explores the possibilities of reimagining cities from the point of view of live-work arrangements.
Since 2016, students of the Engineers for Social Impact studio at NYU AD (New York University's campus in Abu Dhabi) have spent one week handstorming in Dharavi, Mumbai. The idea is to research, observe, ideate and handstorm during the week-long workshop, the learning of which are further researched and developed in the studio upon their return to Abu Dhabi. These annual Handstorm workshops in Dharavi generate incremental innovations that improve the quality of life in this massive settlement.
The Handstorm workshop brought together various actors from all around the world to build things that could improve the neighbourhood based on discussions with residents and with the help of local artisans
