What could your post be about?
All texts should have a clear pertinence in the debate on Social Design, design to improve life, design’s social impact, design’s responsibility, design education or design research.
They could take the form of a dissertation, a first-person testimony, a how-to manual, an interview, a book/conference/exhibition review, etc.
The scope is still quite broad.
You have a Social Design project and you wish to promote it?
If you belong to a project and you wish to promote it through the blog, we urge you first to consider the SocialDesignSite for that purpose. What you can also do, for the blog, is elaborate or set a discussion around the key topics of your project. You can also build bridges between different projects. The blog should be a space for deeper thinking and elaboration, other than just exhibition.
