About the Event

South Designs: Planetary Futures

Critical Urbanisms at the University of Basel announces South Designs: Planetary Futures. This eight-month series of discussions reflects on how design, thought and practiced from the South, forges planetary futures.

What do design responses to ecological crisis look like when they are grounded in the aspirations and struggles of those most affected, predominantly residing in the Global South? How does design grapple with radical interdependence in conditions of enduring injustice and rapid urban and environmental change?

In 2022, we launched a global call for projects to answer these questions. Over 150 multidisciplinary teams from across the world responded. In dialogue with emerging thought and design leaders, the six winning project teams will reflect on their collaborative and speculative work with communities, sites, and materials and discuss how current social and ecological theory confronts the pragmatics and urgencies of making things together.
