Socratus
The world has many ‘wicked’ problems that defy easy solutions. These problems are systemic, interrelated, and intractable. Socratus brings tools from philosophy, design and cognitive science to address wicked problems at all scales, ranging from the hyperlocal to the global. The Socratus-ROH Indies partnership revolves around field and public engagement activities relating to society-street dog interactions in India.
