Ethical Implications for Industrial Designers
Responsible design practices, cultural sensitivity, design for social justice, and the role of design in addressing pressing social and environmental challenges. This ID overview spans many crucial issues surrounding products people use and depend on every day. Many of these products are fabricated using unsustainable materials and manufacturing processes, often leading to planet-endangering pollution. A variety of products are assembled from materials sourced from countries mired in poverty, with most profits flowing to importers and manufacturers in wealthy nations. We will look at ways that design can have a positive impact on this dynamic.
