What is this?
Overview
Liberatory Design is a process and practice to:
Generate self-awareness to liberate designers from habits that perpetuate inequities.
Shift the relationship between the people who hold power to design and those impacted by designs.
Foster learning and agency for those involved in and influenced by design work.
Create conditions for collective liberation.
The Liberatory Design Deck included here offers Mindsets and Modes to support your practice of Liberatory Design.
Mindsets: to invoke stances and values to ground and focus your design practice.
Modes: to provide process guidance for your design practice.
The Liberatory Design approach and card deck are (always!) works in progress. We’d love to hear your feedback! How do you use it? What works for you? What do you wish was different? Any new ideas? Find the team at www.liberatorydesign.com
