In terms of social change, and the intervention of design within this space, our greatest barrier can often be time. We have limited time to design an intervention of change.
We will be exploring techniques for the short-circuiting time, and applying them to areas of social change. Design as a vehicle for justice is an area that is still very much unchartered, providing motivated designers with the opportunity to innovate, collaborate and nurture change.
