Presented by Victoria Barnett. Moderated by Jay Wall RGD.
As part of the 2022 So(cial) Good Design Awards program, we continue our series of webinars exploring the topic of design and social good. Shifting from thinking about “social good” as an intended outcome of a design process, we will dig into how to do better through the process itself, with an introduction to the concept of design justice.
Hosted by Jay Wall RGD, this webinar will feature a presentation by Victoria Barnett of the Design Justice Network. With local nodes and working groups across the globe, the Design Justice Network is an international community of people and organizations who are committed to embodying and practicing the Design Justice Network Principles. The principles of Design Justice are a commitment to rethinking design processes so that they center people who are too often marginalized or overlooked in a design process.
Victoria will unpack the 10 design justice principles and share examples of how you can put them into practice, encouraging community-based and equity-centered design that supports social change.
