Liberatory Design is an approach to addressing complex equity + design challenges.
It’s a process and practice to:
To generate self-awareness in order to liberate leaders/ designers from habits that perpetuate inequity.
Transform power by shifting the relationships between those who hold power to design with those impacted by these designs.
To co-create conditions for collective liberation.
To catalyze the equity-centered designer in you.
The Liberatory Design Deck included here offers ways to notice and reflect Libertatory Design invites designers of all kinds to notice, reflect, and take action with creative courage, conversation, community-building, storytelling, and action.
How does it work?
The downloadable Liberatory Design cards (currently in three languages) offers Mindsets and Modes to support your practice of designing for equity. The Mindset cards invoke stances and values to ground and focus your design practice. The Mode cards provide process guidance for your design practice
