This masterclass focuses on how design can be used as a powerful civic tool to shape our society. This masterclass looks at how designers can act as changemakers by designing with intention, accountability, and impact. We’ll examine how design disciplines have been used to empower individuals, strengthen communities, and reimagine public systems.
A big thank you to our partner, Babbel, for hosting and facilitating this masterclass!
Venue: Babbel GmbH, Andreasstraße 72, 10243, Berlin, Germany
This masterclass will focus on:
The designer’s role in fostering inclusion, equity, and accountability in public-facing work
How to design with transparency and ethical responsibility—especially in public or institutional contexts
How to design for real-world impact across political, societal, and cultural systems
Case studies showing how design has been used to mobilize, organize, and communicate in civic environments
...as we gain practical insights into how to design for public perception, build trust through transparency, and drive change at a structural level.
