Through the lens of the Distributed Design Platform, we delve into the multifaceted aspects of design that extend far beyond the creation of physical artifacts. As our societies evolve, so must our approach to design. We advocate for a paradigm shift, challenging conventional norms and embracing a postcolonial and post-anthropocene perspective. We navigate the intricacies of design education, emphasizing the importance of breaking free from outdated systems to empower a new generation of designers capable of shaping policy-making processes.
