"Designing with Community in Mind" Panel Discussion
DESIGNING WITH COMMUNITY IN MIND
Industry Talks | Q&A | Panel Discussion
The second evening of Afrofuturism in Motion by Fuata Moyo opens with two Industry Talks led by representatives from Sunglass Hut and the V&A Watershed.
Each will share insights into how their organisations engage with local creatives and communities — exploring why and how these collaborations occur, what value they bring, and the challenges or lessons that have emerged along the way.
These conversations will set the tone for the evening’s Panel Discussion, inviting reflection on the dynamics among industry, creativity, and community - and on how designing with people differs from designing for them.
Opening the floor to designers, cultural practitioners and social entrepreneurs from diverse fields to share their experiences, perspectives, and approaches to working in and with(out) the community.
