How design and social innovation initiatives operate in their local contexts.
Over dit evenement
Board Lecture #2
Welcome to the second lecture of a recurring lecture series called The Board Lectures, presented by Foundation We Are. We have invited our board members to give a lecture on whatever topic they are an expert in. In his lecture, Cyril will discuss his PhD research in Hong Kong, Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur where he explored how design and social innovation initiatives operate in their local contexts. In particular how they make use of (co)design and which challenges they face when trying to design together with local residents. This will be contrasted with recent insights from research conducted in Groningen, where local energy initiatives are engaging in co-creation activities in the neighbourhood.
Cyril Tjahja is currently working as a design and social innovation researcher at the TNO research institute and a lecturer at the VU University in Amsterdam, where he teaches at the department of Media, Design, Art and Architecture. He has a background in visual communication and co-design and for the last fifteen years has worked in a variety of design and advertising agencies. His research interests are design and social innovation, decolonising design, pluriversal design and material culture.
