CUMULUS Design Education for Social Change Working Group

Activity: Participating in or organising an event Participation in workshop, seminar, course

Description

The workshop is the first official meeting of the new Cumulus working group: Design Education for Social Change.

The Working Group created by the joint efforts of the Social Design Network and the DESIS Network aims at investigating the key aspects and innovative didactic approaches of design for social change. What does it mean to teach and learn to design for social change? How can we enable a better understanding of the various approaches and fields of design education for social change?

The workshop builds on the results of the mapping survey ‘MAPPING THE LANDSCAPE OF DESIGN EDUCATION FOR SOCIAL CHANGE’ launched a couple of months prior to the event.

The main goal of the mapping project was to create a qualitative map of current design courses, units, and initiatives focused on Design Education for Social Change at Cumulus member institutions to foster knowledge sharing and collaborations at global level.
