Students will launch the Food for All project by engaging with real stories and community voices about food deserts in the Bronx, develop interview and observation skills, conduct direct user research with at least two community members, and create structured empathy maps grounded in direct quotes to inform later problem definition.

Students will synthesize interview evidence, scientific content, and local food access data to define a focused, evidence-based problem statement that names a specific Bronx user, clarifies root causes, and frames an actionable "How Might We" question to guide ideation.

Students will generate a wide range of innovative, user-centered solutions to address food insecurity in the Bronx, using structured ideation strategies before selecting and sketching the most promising concepts grounded in real interview and data evidence.

Students will build, test, and refine low- to higher-fidelity prototypes of their food access solutions, using structured user feedback and documented iteration logs to strengthen alignment between community needs, nutritional science, and policy considerations.

Students will validate their refined food access interventions with new users, strengthen evidence-based communication, and present their design journey to Bronx stakeholders at the Science Expo.
