Description

This reader is part of the ‘Strategic Creativity Series’ at the Design Academy Eindhoven. An overview of the educational programme entitled ‘The Risk Society’, it offers insights and tools that were generated by students through design research on risk situations. How can designers help us prepare for, deal with, or act upon risks? This question has become increasingly crucial with the growing number of risks currently faced by humankind – radical ecologies such as melting glaciers, fragile financial systems, and failing democracies. The topical investigation involves established theories about risk and newly developed ethnographic, visual, and design research tools.
