Abstract

We investigated the current picture of appreciation, state of relevant knowledge and skills, and practice among the Indian design professionals regarding service design and design for behaviour change. Inter alia, the current scenario regarding the embeddedness and maturity path of service design in academic institutes and industry were studied. Indian society and businesses are facing challenges that are wicked, deep and complex due to the diversity of social, cultural, and economic conditions. They could benefit from a synthesis of service design and design for behavioural change. This study is exploratory in nature. However, it is a significant initial step to emphasize the need of and gaps in the aspects pertaining to effective service design for behavioural change practice in India and suggests indicative interventions. With these interventions, Indian professionals could achieve maturity and be in a position to address the wicked problem India faces.
