Possible Futures of (Design) Education Event

We are thrilled to announce an exciting discussion hosted by DESIGN INVESTIGATIONS @anabjain @dieangewandte

On 14th December, we present ’Possible Futures of (Design) Education’, an online and in-person event that explores futures of education, with a specific focus on design. Please register your free spot via Eventbrite.
We are honoured to have pioneering educators, thinkers, and practitioners from around world joining us to discuss what possible futures of (design) education we could help shape, provoking proactive imaginings of the future while inviting students and educators alike to forge different relationships in the present.

The rapid growth of AI, urgency of climate change and interconnected crises highlight the necessity of radically reimagining education. The monolithic assumptions and goals of education, which have been complicit in shaping the worlds we live in, must be (re)examined and (re)defined to navigate uncertainty. But how? What tools and methodologies can we adopt to go beyond the human-centred approaches and cultivate hope in times of crises?

Following this discussion, two young respondents will share their thoughts, followed by a Q&A from the audience.

We look forward to seeing you!
