This presentation explores the intersection of creativity, design and learning. Over the past decade, my research has focused on developing inclusive co-design methodologies that empower marginalised groups. Through a series of case studies, I will discuss various projects that have employed these approaches in diverse contexts. Examples include collaborations with FabLabs in Mexico, online social engagement initiatives, and co-designing educational programs with student partners at the Open University. These projects highlight the potential of creative engagement to promote inclusivity, drive social change, and address pressing societal challenges.
Maven of the Month
We are also inviting top experts in AI and Knowledge Technologies to discuss major socio-technological topics with an audience that comprises both members of the Knowledge Media Institute, as well as the wider staff at The Open University. Differently from our seminar series, these events follow a Q&A format.
