If we ever needed evidence of how Western design has been aligned with agendas of oppression, waste, excess and elitism, just look at Design Schools focused on luxury and design. Connected to galleries and glossy magazines, disconnected from the people, context, everyday life, futures, justice

"the one sin I have come to fear more than any other is certainty. #Certainty is the great enemy of unity. Certainty is the deadly enemy of tolerance... If there was only certainty, and if there was no doubt, there would be no mystery, and therefore no need for faith." R. Harris, Conclave
I proudly wore this #AlwaysWasAlwaysWillBe tshirt to teach today and felt the hostility from two white male students in my class #notoracism Oh well
Tenemos que cambiar la #educación en #diseño porque parte de los diseñadores se quedarán sin trabajo en el futuro. Hay que enseñar la capacidad de imaginar y representar. Y sobre todo pensamiento crítico. #MauricioNovoaMuñoz @disenoydiaspora.bsky.social

A history of failures at Philips. Worth remembering how these companies were portrayed as paradigms of design only a couple of decades ago. Good lessons here to challenge the narratives in design education

People in context always do know better than designers. Two examples of the Designer Fallacy. If only we taught design students to trust people, we would avoid the trope that users need to be "educated" by the experts
Design methods books are painfully limited as a teaching resource, reducing rich and complex practices where people develop sensibilities to caricature procedures that learners follow mechanically. Peak standardisation in education

Thank you for giving us more reasons to leave IG and spend more time here
Best conference in a long long time. University of Cuenca in Ecuador and many groups in Guayaquil are doing some of the most interesting work in "social design" anywhere in the world. But you won't hear about it in the Global North academia
The quantity and quality of design in everyday life in Mexico is as surprising as how design schools ignore it and instead teach European material culture in the curriculum
