Book Overview
Who are you? What motivates you as a changemaker? What forces are preventing you (and others) from thriving? These questions are essential to the work of creating social change, and they are exactly what this book asks you to explore.
Designer and educator Lesley-Ann Noel shares the essential design strategies for creating lasting impact. This work starts with knowing yourself and builds outward into making change in your community and the larger world. Design Social Change gives you the tools to tailor your approach to design, considering your history, personality, ethics, and goals for a better future.
In this book, the strategies for change are based on equity and fairness, understanding your own role, and seeking justice. These strategies demonstrate how to use anger, joy, and empathy as inspiration and to understand what people need to thrive. These new approaches can inspire change using the tools of design, helping you craft changes that are relevant to you and move the impact of your work toward a more just and equitable future.
