Online talk: Designing Digital Culture: Tools for Civic Agency and Collective Futures photo
Join us to explore how design can be used as a civic tool to question, reimagine, and co-create our digital cultures. We’ll examine how creative practices enable communities to claim greater ownership over the digital spaces, tools, and narratives that shape their lives. 

Speakers will share design-led approaches that support critical digital agency, from building community-driven platforms and infrastructures to rethinking visibility, representation, and identity online. Through community-led and collaborative design, this panel explores how design and creative practices enable citizens to move beyond passive participation and toward active authorship of digital culture.
