What do we mean by changemaking? How can design research and design practice catalyse changemaking? And how to teach or train for changemaking via design or using design and creative methods? In this lecture Dr Silvia Grimaldi and Dr Malé Luján Escalante, respond to these key questions using examples to their own practice, and grounded it in the pedagogical principles used at UAL:LCC MA Service Design. We discuss pedagogical principles informed by Design Justice, Bell Hooks, Fraire’s Pedagogy of the Oppressed and Response-able Pedagogy Principles.
