Designing Innovative Research Pathways For The Advancement Of Design Research: Iasdr 2023 Doctoral And Postgraduate Consortium, Paola Bertola, Elena Elgani, Clorinda Sissi Galasso, Peter Gall Krogh, Anna Meroni, Lucia Rampino

IASDR Conference Series

The paper explores relevant themes for design research that arose from research works proposed for IASDR2023 and developed by doctoral candidates and recent master's degree graduates. Particular attention has been paid to research investigations that reflect on the theme of Life-Changing Design, specifically examining how design is responding to the transformations occurring in the contemporary period. Reflections on the soft impact of technologies, in particular digital technologies, on daily life are accompanied by an analysis of innovations and challenges faced by healthcare systems, products, and services. This is followed by an examination of social innovation themes and practices, and the …

Textile Autobiographies: Crafting Shifting Identities With Refugee Communities, Francesco Mazzarella, Seher Mirza

IASDR Conference Series

With the rising mass displacement of people, rethinking and addressing the needs and aspirations of refugee communities and honouring their diverse cultures is needed. Historically, the textile heritage of minorities has often been subjected to cultural appropriation practices or systematically undervalued and ‘othered’ as ‘non-fashion’. Designers are often ‘parachuted’ into marginalised or disadvantaged communities premised on bringing their own knowledge and expertise to solve other people’s problems. However, there is growing recognition of the need to ‘decolonise’ such dominant approaches in collaborative design practice. Instead of re-enacting dominant power narratives, London-based refugees and asylum seekers were engaged in storytelling sessions …

Designing Collective Racial Healing Spaces, Angelica Sibrian, Nekita Thomas, Terresa Moses, Lisa Elzey Mercer

IASDR Conference Series

Spaces for collective racial healing within predominantly White institutions are meant to support the path to collective liberation for Black, Indigenous, and students of color. It is imperative that we intentionally create racial healing spaces that support the identities and experiences of students of color on a predominantly White institution. We assert that physical spaces support empowerment and create access to opportunities for students of color through protection, healing, and community. The question that guides this work is, how might people with an agency within institutions of higher learning build sustainable, inclusive, and supportive spaces for and with Black, Indigenous, …

Changing The Narrative: Co-Designing Awareness About Environmental Sustainability With Children In Denmark, Canan Akoglu, Marie Kremer, Craig Native

IASDR Conference Series

The world is facing pressing environmental challenges calling for urgent actions in different levels. In this type of a picture, the earlier the actions are taken, the better future for next generations could be created. In the context of sustainable innovation, by codesigning activities that promote sustainability, young minds can become much conscious about environmental sustainability in a joyful and interactive way. This paper investigates how design can trigger sustainable behavioural change in people with a specific focus on engaging with children. The investigation is done through 3 cases which were created during a first-year master’s course in collaboration with …

Participatory Design Of Service Innovation To Support People And Their Carers In Moray, Jay Bradley, Sonya Lizbeth Joseph, Linda Shore, Marlene Harkis

IASDR Conference Series

This paper describes the findings of a participatory-design project focused on the use of modern, digital technologies to support people and their carers. In particular, to improve access to services, better co-ordinate services and to make support packages more resilient (more likely to reduce a crisis situation and more likely to last longer before needing changes). The design activities were: a focus group and three participatory design workshops, all with health and care professionals, and several interviews with unpaid carers. The work all took place in Moray, Scotland. The findings are presented as designed concepts and insights that should help …

Relational Design Practices In Design For Social Innovation: A Place-Centred Approach, Annalinda De Rosa, Marco Andrea Finardi, Valentina Auricchio

IASDR Conference Series

This paper reflects on how relational art can contribute to participatory approaches in design for social innovation research and practices applied in community engagement processes towards the regeneration of commons in rural contexts. Inland areas, small towns far from large urban centres, today face urgent challenges to counter the process of abandonment and devaluation. The loss of primary services such as schools and the exodus to the cities increase their fragility. In the wake of the pandemic, many reflections on the role of public space have emerged: the recovery of a renewed human scale dimension and the need to manage …

Going Beyond Fear In Addressing Attorney Mental Health, Eric C. Lang

Mercer Law Review Symposium

We know that a career in law is challenging, but our profession has only recently focused on the mental health consequences of those challenges. We first started analyzing mental health issues after a number of attorney suicides caught the public eye. Realizing the problem was much broader than the tragic outcome of suicide, we have spent the last several years focused on the use of statistics to convince the profession of its own dangers. The solution, to date, has been an emphasis on Lawyer Assistance Programs and “wellness” initiatives accompanied by what could be described as scare tactics designed to …

Interdisciplinary Collaborative Practice In Early Childhood, Sara Kupzyk, Brenda Bassingthwaite, Adam D. Weaver, Philip D. Nordness Dr.

Perspectives on Early Childhood Psychology and Education

Young children often present with challenging behaviors such as tantrums, aggression, and noncompliance. Rates of expulsion for behavior concerns in early childhood are alarming and can have long-term negative implications for children and their families (Early Childhood Learning and Knowledge Center, 2022). Implementation of a systematic multi-tiered system of supports framework can improve behavioral outcomes of young children. To effectively meet child and family needs within these frameworks, it is integral for members of the team to collaborate. Interdisciplinary teams within early childhood might include families, teachers, school psychologists, behavior analysts, speech language pathologists, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other …
