Striking functional design is what first drew me to Stephanie Bertels', work on the Embedding Project. As a professor at SFU's Beedie School of Business, Bertels is the founder and executive director of the Embedding Project, a global public-benefit research project that helps companies embed social and environmental factors across their operations and decision-making.

The rich trove of resources in the Embedding Project are visually represented with a circle of topics organized on the basis of a systematic review and a decade of additional research. Visitors can drill down to find resources researched and developed by the Embedding Project along with other curated content. I keep returning to this page as an exemplar means of organizing and sharing information.
