Design for Post-Capitalism

Workshop
Planet Earth


PROPOSAL DESCRIPTION

If yesterday’s models were built for efficiency and productivity, tomorrow’s should be built for wellbeing and intercitizenship. How can we switch from organising our key metrics around ads and profit? How can we move further from "Don't be evil" (Google's mantra) to "Don't be extractive"?

How can we create products that have longer lifespans, are modular, or are locally produced? How can we encourage a culture of maintenance, repair and co-usership? How is community more powerful than material consumption when it comes to improving people's sense of happiness?
