[quick links] Impact Design’s 2014 & 2015 roundups and a new report on media for social change.

Jumping right into February 2015, check out a pair of purposeful posts on design with impact and media for social change.

First, via Impact Design Hub’s great blog, we have a couple of good design reads sure to inspire.

• Impact Design’s Unsung Heroes of 2014
• 12 Projects That Will Change the World in 2015

Our second quick link comes from a reader suggestion to  check out the Ripple Strategies report, “The Ripple Effect: How to Use the Media for Social Change.” I’ve finally taken a closer look, and so should you.  Part one lays out the new media landscape, while part two delves into developing a “solutions” media campaign.

There you have it — two great resources to celebrate Month Two (aka February)! Sound off in the comments on what you’ve found fascinating or most useful from these links.
