For a very long time, we have been dreaming about exploring print publishing—to see and feel texts on paper; to let them travel beyond the digital. Now, this dream has finally become reality: We are publishing a book, and you can already pre-order it!
“Design Educators* Unite!” is an anthology foregrounding feminist pedagogies in design within and beyond academia. It brings together educators, students, designers, and activists from Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Iraq, Switzerland, Trinidad and Tobago, the United Kingdom, and the United States who engage in educational activism and explore pedagogies grounded in social justice. United by the shared refusal to accept design education as it currently exists, the collected contributions share situated approaches to disability justice, queering design methodologies, trans pedagogies, and collaborations with social movements. The book asks how knowledge is produced, who is given space, and who is granted access by foregrounding design education as an inherently political practice and confronting colonial violence and institutional barriers.
Until November 10, you can get the book for a reduced price within a sliding scale (Solidarity: 27 €/Regular: 22 €/Low Income: 16 €). You’ll then be among the first to receive it by the end of November this year.
