From February through April 2010, the Design Revolution Road Show is bringing a lecture series and traveling exhibition of "design that empowers people" to 25 universities and high schools across the United States.

The undertaking is conceived by San Francisco-based design nonprofit Project H Design. The road show features a biodiesel-powered truck and Airstream trailer exhibition of 40 humanitarian design solutions (which was parked in front of CCA's main San Francisco campus building Wednesday, February 3).

You'll most likely recognize several of the designs, particularly the fuseproject-designed One Laptop Per Child, an affordable laptop for networked learning, and the NYC Condom, a dispenser for free condoms in New York. (Former chair of CCA's Industrial Design Program Yves Béhar founded fuseproject in 1999.)

But hurry . . . good design travels fast.
