The societal challenges we face nowadays can be seen as signals of a need for a new paradigm and new ways of working. As Gardien et al. (2014) indicate “[with] processes, methods, tools and competencies from an older paradigm, it can only come to solutions that fit that older paradigm”. In this elective, you will explore a multitude of new theories, approaches and practices related to wide scope of societal transformation, i.e., design for transforming practices, social innovation, social design, design justice, value sensitive design, etc.., that aim at addressing and realising a sustainable world in becoming.
