Call for Participation: Community-Engaged Design Education

Community-Engaged Design Education: Power, Culture, and Practice is an international symposium exploring one of the most urgent questions in design: How do we teach and practice design ethically across cultural boundaries?

In a world where connection and division coexist, this symposium gathers design educators, community partners, social scientists and practitioners to examine how power, culture and lived experience shape community-based design. In this two-day event, we will explore real collaborations in which the learning process is defined by tensions, failures, breakthroughs and reciprocity.

We approach design not as something done for communities, but as something created with them.
