BEYOND PROJECTS
Approaches for continuity and durational practice of Social Design
Why do many social design projects remain a short-term intervention? And how can we go beyond the symbolic enactment of promising ideas? What is needed to overcome some barriers to the long-term continuation of design for society?
Shay Raviv conducted in-depth research on social design projects and bundled the outcomes in a Visual Essay: Beyond Projects. Together with a research team and several partners, they explored which barriers in social design often limit social design projects' continuity and further development.
The essay proposes five workable approaches to increase the sustainability of Social Design projects and the likelihood of implementation. By being aware of the path for continuity and ideally aiming at it from the beginning of the social design trajectory, some barriers toward implementation may be lowered
