Abstract "Design for Global Challenges and Goals charts the developments, opportunities and challenges for design research in addressing global challenges facing the developing world, focusing on the UN's Sustainable Development Goals. The book explores the role design and social responsibility play in the UN Sustainable Development Goals, and how design works in developing contexts. It presents 10 design-led case studies addressing different Sustainable Development Goals ranging from reducing poverty and hunger, improving health and wellbeing, promoting gender equality, developing more sustainable cities and communities, more responsible consumption and production, to tackling climate change. Design for Global Challenges also addresses the future, offering foresight into the research in global challenges by identifying the opportunities and emerging trends for researchers. Providing a guide to the state-of-the-art of design research that addresses the Sustainable Development Goals, this book will be of interest to researchers, practitioners and students who want their research to address global challenges in a Global South context"-- Provided by publisher.
