“…The Global Design Activist Survey conducted by Kaygan and Julier (2013) has started a conversation by collecting different understandings of contemporary design activism from designers, design scholars and historians. In the survey, they asked 1) how design activism has impacted design culture locally, and 2) what they found as a key challenge for design activism in that particular region.…”

This paper explores the vital engagement of people at different stages of the product lifecycle. The incorporation of human values in the creation of empathy allows for ethics to be considered across the design and make process. A case study approach was adopted utilising data obtained from two large consumer goods companies. From this, a relationship was found to lie between the involvement of people as active participants and the creation of empathy. These empathetic values consequently facilitated the consideration of a responsible approach to be implemented. Conclusions show that during the design process people create added value with a participatory approach, whilst during production consumers become prosumers in consumer-led innovation to help drive forward an ethical agenda.

“…In Design, the concept of activism has been discussed by notable authors such as Carl DiSalvo, Harun Kaygan and Guy Julier in relation to the cultural transition toward social design. Kaygan and Julier (2013) discuss the notion of design activism as an emerging design practice imagined and practised in worldwide localities that can shape entire design cultures; the idea discussed in the work of these authors is important because the concept of activism is linked to a new culture that must be embraced in order to transition toward more holistic designs, as well as to the need to influence the design community to develop social and economic change. The work of Kaygan and Julier shows similarities with thoseby Victor Papanek (1985) -design interventions for the weakest population -and by Ezio Manzini (2019) -design for social innovation.…”

What happens when brands engage in activism and involve themselves in the socio-political lives of their consumers? The rise of social issues and political messages in brand design is an emerging topic for the Design discipline. Designers are asked to communicate more complex ideologies in products and advertising campaigns. Designing-in values, individuality and political stance is becoming more commonplace though the impact of such efforts on consumers is mixed. This study explores the complexity of political engagement to woke design. A series of case studies discussed in this paper show that when brands are involved in activism, it impacts their consumers, reputation, and products. The analysis of evidence extracted from case studies indicates that activism campaigns have polarizing effects on consumers, increasing the brands’ reputation. Moreover, a visual model mapping the dynamics of activism in brand design is presented to allow an assessment of the phenomenon.

“…Activist designers could consider expanding the notion of design activism and explore it across all three orders of governance. Design activists today mainly speak to other activists (Fuad-Luke 2009) and design activism is often reduced to exhibition material and thereby held back from bringing about meaningful change (Kaygan & Julier, 2013). Bringing design activism directly into the second and third order could bring it out of the galleries and into governments.…”
