Every day the danger of human dependence on natural resources becomes more and more apparent. It manifests in systemic exploitation, socioeconomic inequality, and continued corruption in our systems of power, knowledge, economy, and culture. How can design be used to create small but powerful, lasting action that both raises awareness of pressing global issues and positively impacts our community? This course will work in conjunction with the Transition movement on campus to design and implement projects that lead Hampshire toward a more just and resilient future.
