This document outlines the objectives and research questions of the Working Group Social Change Beyond Consumerism.
The group aims to 1) develop concepts to understand and influence transformations to sustainability, 2) facilitate learning among social experiment actors, and 3) generate knowledge for sustainability pioneers. They will examine how digitalization and urbanization influence social practices and both "reactionary" and "constructive" social responses. Key questions include how these trends contribute to innovative social practices, and where interventions could facilitate sustainable transformations.
The group will create a inventory of innovative social practices from digitalization and urbanization with sustainability potential, and critically examine dynamics renewing interest in solidarity and community. They will link past and future transition dynamics to social

This document discusses the need for major social change to reduce consumption and transition to a more sustainable economy and culture. It argues that small-scale initiatives alone will not be enough, and outlines four important contexts that need consideration: 1) Transitioning away from an economy dependent on private consumption and toward one focused on public investment and social spending. 2) Challenging the neoliberal ideology that has disembedded the economy from society. 3) Supporting low-income city inhabitants and balancing market forces with investments in public amenities and housing. 4) Recognizing that cultural and technological changes are intertwined with economic and institutional transformations.
Threefold Sustainability: New Direction for Development
Sustainability is about balancing the economic, social and environmental aspect of every human venture. Countries everywhere now have an obligation to achieve the SDGs. Higher education for sustainable development should lead. Why not start a positive impact career?

The document discusses transitioning the current consumption and production system to one that achieves equitable well-being within planetary boundaries. It proposes identifying alternative provisioning systems like sharing economies and circular economies. It also suggests developing financial incentives and reflecting on well-being from economic and social perspectives. Questions are posed about understanding the social structures and power dynamics behind needed changes, identifying champions of reform, and how research can help array tools to achieve the goals. Overarching research questions focus on unpacking current systems, interventions, stakeholder interests, operationalizing sustainable consumption corridors, and linking consumption and production changes to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.

This document provides a status report from the WG Communication for Sustainable Consumption workshop held on April 5, 2017. It includes an initial framing document that discusses communication for sustainable consumption, social learning, and potential areas of focus. It also outlines a preliminary implementation scheme for a research and action agenda. Additional sections discuss potential audiences, objectives, and approaches for communication efforts and provide an exemplary project idea. Comments from other workshop days address topics such as changing media behaviors, engaging diverse stakeholders, and ensuring meaningful participation.
Mapping Productivity, Energy, and Wellbeing
1) The document outlines a participatory knowledge mapping research project exploring the relationships between productivity, energy, and wellbeing in the UK.
2) The researchers developed mapping strategies to explore assumptions that higher productivity necessarily leads to higher living standards, given the transition away from fossil fuels.
3) Initial mapping activities included individual concept maps from experts on energy and productivity, and wellbeing and productivity, as well as group "giga" maps to identify critical relationships and uncertainties between concepts.

The document discusses reflections from state and local initiatives focused on communication strategies for sustainable consumption and production. It describes initiatives in Seattle aimed at creating dialogue around sustainable economies. It also discusses how equity frames and movements against fossil fuel infrastructure or for local economic justice could provide opportunities to communicate about sustainable consumption. However, it notes challenges around problem definitions, terminology, taboos around consumption, and lack of influencers. Potential opportunities discussed include aligning with social justice movements, telling stories, leveraging climate commitments, finding small entry points, and engaging in local political organizing.

Long Assesment
Alex Escudero will present on four graphical styles: cel-shading, abstract, photorealism, and exaggeration. Graphical styles involve creating drawings based on mathematical rules to change an item's appearance. The presentation will discuss each style in detail. Cel-shading makes 3D graphics appear flat like comics. Abstract art emphasizes lines and colors without resembling reality. Photorealism uses cameras and photos to create realistic paintings. Exaggeration amplifies aspects of games, like enlarged weapons in Japanese-influenced titles. Color theory also relates to graphical styles by combining hues for certain effects. Overall, the presentation teaches how to identify different games' graphical styles.
Interactive media
Social media refers to virtual communities and networks where people interact and share information through mobile and web-based technologies. It allows for the creation and exchange of user-generated content. The interactive media industry includes large corporations like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram that have grown substantially. Facebook currently has over 1.15 billion monthly active users and acquired Instagram to expand its social media presence. Twitter is the second largest social network where users follow accounts and post text-based tweets limited to 140 characters. Instagram focuses solely on photo and video sharing between social networks like Facebook. Many companies and media interests use Facebook and Twitter to promote themselves cheaply and gain free publicity.
Grahpical style irene
This document discusses different graphical styles in video games including photorealism, cel-shaded, abstract, and exaggeration styles. Photorealism aims to make games look as realistic as possible through techniques like high detail textures and shading. Cel-shaded games have a cartoon or anime appearance with bright colors. Abstract games have minimal details and focus on puzzles or strategy. Exaggeration takes elements beyond realistic proportions to be dramatic and eye-catching rather than realistic. Each style suits different genres like photorealism for shooters and cel-shaded for platforms. Color theory and tone also impact the mood for each style.

This document is a working paper that discusses problem discovery as a collaborative and creative process for finding "real problems" that can lead to innovation. It argues that creative thinking is important for properly framing problems, not just finding solutions. The paper proposes using a "toolbox of convoluted methods" within a collaborative creativity model to systematically search for hidden real-world problems. It aims to illustrate this process as a way to discover "raw diamonds" that can then be crafted into innovative solutions. The goal is to improve understanding of complex systems and problems to enhance the quality of resulting innovations.
Strengtening Global Competence for elementary education
This document discusses how to strengthen global competency through social studies learning. It recommends infusing social studies curriculum with global competencies as learning outcomes and content related to knowledge, attitudes, and skills. It also suggests preparing teachers to teach global competencies using innovative teaching methods like problem-based and project-based learning. Developing global competence is a lifelong process that involves appreciating other cultures, understanding global interconnectedness, and considering how local decisions impact the world.
DS presenation at SSAT Raising Achievement event
The document discusses innovative teaching practices using new technologies and the opportunities and barriers they present. It explores why teachers should innovate given changing social and economic contexts, as well as the first and second order resistances to change like access issues, perceptions of roles, and beliefs. It proposes envisioning different futures for education through questions like redesigning learning spaces, increasing learner control, and connecting learning to communities.
Shiftsinlearnig Rochester
The document discusses the need for schools to shift from traditional models of teaching and learning to models suited for the 21st century. It notes that learning is becoming more collaborative, participatory and networked as the world becomes more connected through technology. Half of what students learn in their first year may be outdated by their third year, so schools must focus on lifelong learning and preparing students for an uncertain future.
ORafferty-ERSCP
The document discusses the role of design in enabling sustainability through regional policy and capacity building. It outlines challenges like population aging, climate change, and conflict, and argues that non-technological innovation through design can boost competitiveness and quality of life. The purpose is to discuss the dynamics between innovation, design, and sustainability by introducing regional policy issues and how to build capacity for ecodesign. It proposes taking a systems perspective and recognizing that different small businesses require different ecodesign support due to varying characteristics like absorptive capacity.
Shifts In Learning
The document discusses the shift to 21st century learning, including a move from linear to networked learning, an emphasis on community and collaboration over individual achievement, and the need for schools and teachers to adapt to these changes. It notes that skills like creativity, innovation, and pattern recognition will be increasingly important for the future workforce. Statistics are provided on the growth of information and how quickly knowledge becomes outdated, emphasizing the need for lifelong learning. Effective technology integration depends on pedagogical approaches rather than the technology alone.
Open Source Community Models for Supporting Educational Practice
This document discusses how open source community models can support educational practice more effectively than traditional repository models. It outlines several key aspects of successful open source communities, including having a philosophy, structure, roles, financial support, socialization, research, and processes for creating and improving products. The document suggests applying open source community design principles to areas of education like technological innovation, curriculum development, and teaching materials/methods. It poses a discussion question about what features a community would need to foster innovation.
The future of the university
The document discusses how universities will change significantly in the future due to various forces such as technology and financial pressures. It quotes several experts who predict that traditional university models will not survive and that universities could disappear within a few decades like family farms. The document outlines challenges universities will face from increasing demand, costs, and technology disrupting traditional models of education. It argues that universities must transform to new models that leverage digital technologies and lifelong learning to remain relevant in the future.

The document discusses the role of grassroots, media art practices and pedagogy informed by such practices. It describes Furtherfield.org, a community and online platform that supports experimental art, technology and social change. It discusses how Furtherfield.org takes a constructivist and practice-based approach to learning, encouraging collaboration and engagement. It raises the question of what role such a pedagogy could play in renegotiating relationships and promoting agency during the current environmental crisis.
Knowledge economy-and-society-9436
The document discusses the knowledge economy and knowledge society. It defines the knowledge economy as one where knowledge has become the main resource and the pace of innovation is accelerating. Knowledge has different properties than traditional resources like being non-rivalrous and partially excludable. The knowledge society can be viewed through the lens of the primacy of scientific knowledge, the rise of knowledge work, or as a networked society where knowledge production and sharing are decentralized. There are implications for policies, organizations, and individuals in transitioning to a knowledge economy and society.

Gulf Coast Green 2012 Mitchell Thomashow
The document outlines the nine elements of a sustainable culture/campus: infrastructure, community, and learning. Infrastructure includes energy, food, and materials. Community includes governance, investment, and wellness. Learning includes curriculum, aesthetics, and interpretation. Each element is described in 1-2 paragraphs, outlining key aspects and questions to consider to make progress toward sustainability in that area. The overall goal is to train a new generation of sustainability leaders through experiential learning and leading by example with campus initiatives.
Canova Iadis Mobile Learning 2009
The document discusses different social structures that can support city-wide collaborative learning. It describes structures like communities of practice that are focused on specific tasks, learning ecologies made of overlapping communities, and "mycorrhizae" communities without defined membership. New technologies enable loosely coupled groups like smart mobs. Design challenges include supporting exploration across multiple social worlds and understanding the roles of virtual and physical spaces.
Pelle Ehn - Social Innovation
This document discusses social innovation and its relationship to design. It provides definitions of social innovation as innovations that meet social needs and generate new social relationships. Examples include the Open University, Wikipedia, microfinance, and hospice. The document discusses how social innovation differs from business innovation in focusing on social return rather than financial return. It outlines approaches to design for social innovation from the UK, Italy, and US and provides case studies of specific social innovation projects in these regions that address issues like poverty, health, and economic empowerment through human-centered design approaches. The document advocates for social innovation to be rooted in local contexts and involve continuous collaboration between diverse stakeholders over time.
The machine in the ghost: a socio-technical perspective...
This document discusses sociotechnical systems and the challenges of collaboration between researchers studying these systems and practitioners. It defines sociotechnical systems as the interrelation between technological and human systems. It argues that truly understanding these systems requires combining the theories and techniques of multiple fields including social science, computer science, and engaging with practitioners. However, bringing these different groups together is difficult due to differences in culture, goals, and incentives between academics and practitioners. It provides some strategies for encouraging collaboration, such as phenomena-based research, workshops, funding incentives, and mixed academic/practitioner events and project partnerships.

More from Ecodesign Centre (EDC)
CE Covenant 2022 presentation - cycLED
This document discusses opportunities for eco-innovation and a circular economy approach within LED lighting supply chains. It notes that LEDs contain many critical and scarce materials that present opportunities for material recovery and recycling. The document explores technical and non-technical issues along the supply chain from material inputs to end of life. It suggests that collaboration across organizations will be needed to enable approaches like reuse, remanufacturing, and high quality recycling. The document also examines challenges like balancing substitution versus recycling and recovering value at end of life. It proposes possible solutions like developing new business models that share costs and value across the supply chain and establishing evaluation criteria for eco-innovative products and supply chain systems.
Unido ceu slides ecodesign centre-foc_3_july2013
This document provides a summary of a guest lecture on ecodesign given to the Green Industry Summer Course. The lecture discusses the need for more sustainable design given environmental problems like pollution, waste, and resource scarcity. It highlights how design decisions have significant impacts and that ecodesign must consider environmental and social issues across a product's entire lifecycle. The lecture argues that both individual behavior and systemic changes are needed across industries, education, policies and design to transition to more sustainable practices. Examples of collaborative ecodesign work in Europe are presented to illustrate approaches. The overall message is that ecodesign thinking can help address pressing environmental and social challenges if adopted more widely.

Material Selection and Design for Sustainable Material Innovation - Presentat...Ecodesign Centre (EDC)
This document discusses material selection and design for sustainable innovation. It describes a case study of an SME manufacturing company in Wales that takes a design-led approach to innovation and has a mature sustainability profile. The case study examines the company's ecodesign processes for new product developments, with a focus on material selection and how materials become embedded in its design culture. The next stages of research involve integrating a developed typology with environmental assessment results and exploring how embedded material knowledge is developed.cycLED - CIWM presentation
This document discusses the complexity of procuring for a circular economy. It notes that while LED lights are more energy efficient than halogen alternatives, their manufacture requires many more materials that have complex supply chain issues. Procuring for sustainability requires considering not just the product itself but the entire value chain, life cycle impacts and design for repair/reuse to keep resources in use for as long as possible. True circular procurement demands partnerships across industries to address these systemic challenges.
Maximising resource value through ecodesign
This document summarizes a presentation on ecodesign and maximizing resource value. Some key points:
- Ecodesign considers the full life cycle of products and aims to design out the biggest sustainability impacts.
- It focuses on creating goods with higher overall quality and value by considering issues like durability, recyclability, use of non-toxic materials.
- Ecodesign embraces new business models like product-service systems to enable more transformational use cycles for resources rather than a "take, make, waste" approach.
- The goal is innovative design through a shift in mindset from waste to resources, and consumption to need and use. Ecodesign is about good design that

This document discusses frameworks for enabling ecodesign and life-cycle thinking among small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to address challenges of climate change and resource depletion. It examines how national innovation systems and policy can increase SME adoption of ecodesign. Previous interventions like grants and information diffusion had limited long-term impact. The study will refine a capacity building framework exploring internal and external contexts of ecodesign intervention for SMEs and build models to evaluate such policies.

This document discusses branding and definitions. It mentions that the author jointly runs a company that works on branding and interactive projects. The author is interested in definitions and creating an outlet that sells sustainable lifestyle products including clothing and homewares.
Eco Network Po
The document discusses planned obsolescence, which refers to intentionally limiting the lifespan of products to drive continued consumption. It describes how planned obsolescence began as a strategy during economic downturns to stimulate growth but ultimately only serves to encourage wastefulness. Various types of planned obsolescence are outlined, along with the argued advantages and disadvantages for manufacturers and consumers.

The pairs include ecological and social narratives, efficiency in systems and conservation through craft, recycling with nostalgia, and participation through play.
EDC OECD Unep Conference On Resource Efficiency
Wales has a devolved administration within the UK and has a statutory obligation to promote sustainable development. Historically, Wales relied on manufacturing and mineral industries but now the service sector and lower volume production are more common. The Ecodesign Centre Wales aims to encourage ecodesign and sustainable production and consumption in Wales. It was established in 2006 by the Welsh Assembly Government to build capabilities for effective ecodesign among Welsh businesses, especially SMEs. Recommendations to support this include identifying focus areas for intervention, creating knowledge sharing platforms, building support for ecodesign in education and training, and facilitating cross-policy learning.

Tools For Sustainable Design Innovation
The Ecodesign Centre Wales aims to encourage sustainable production and consumption in Wales by building capabilities for effective ecodesign. Ecodesign, also known as design for environment, involves designing products and services to reduce environmental impacts across their lifecycles from material sourcing through end of life. Over 80% of a product's environmental impacts are determined during the design stage. However, barriers like lack of awareness, resources and competing priorities sometimes prevent companies from adopting ecodesign. The government and Ecodesign Centre Wales seek to address these barriers and facilitate knowledge sharing to promote ecodesign in Wales.
EDC Impact2008
This document summarizes a presentation given by Frank O'Connor at the Impact 2008 Conference in Glasgow about whether ecodesign is truly good design. It discusses how ecodesign aims to reduce environmental and social impacts through design. It notes that 80% of a product's impacts are determined at the design stage. However, ecodesign also faces conflicts with traditional design approaches. These include ecodesign being seen as optional, issues around globalization and consumption, true lifecycle costs not being considered, and resistance to change. The document provides examples to illustrate these challenges but also points to companies and designers that are embracing ecodesign as good business practice.
EDC Making Business Sense of SD
Frank O'Connor presented at the "Making Business Sense of Sustainable Development" conference on conflicts between economic, social and environmental aspirations. He discussed how ecodesign, which aims to reduce environmental and social impacts through design, requires considering a product's entire lifecycle. However, there are conflicts because sustainable development is not always a priority in our globalized economy that promotes over-consumption. Ecodesign that considers the full lifecycle is good business practice and the only sustainable path for businesses in the long run.

Exchange Of Experiences In The Field of Resource Efficiency
The document discusses building the capacity and capabilities of organizations to implement effective ecodesign. It notes that capacity refers to an organization's overall ability to create value and perform effectively, while capabilities refer to the building blocks that make up an organization's ability to perform. It then discusses providing support packages to small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to adopt ecodesign principles through guidance, industry partnerships, and funding of up to £20,000 per company. Initial outcomes included companies successfully applying ecodesign and developing exemplar sustainable products and services, and gaining the confidence to continue ecodesign efforts.
Supporting SRI & Ecodesign in SME's
This document summarizes efforts to support sustainable regional innovation and ecodesign among small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Wales. It discusses the context in Wales including its devolved government and industrial history. It then describes the establishment of the Ecodesign Centre Wales, a small team aimed to build SME capacity for ecodesign. The document reviews perspectives on supporting ecodesign in SMEs and shares insights from workshops with Welsh SMEs. It concludes by recommending a focus on knowledge sharing, capacity building, education, and establishing a culture of policy learning to further support ecodesign among SMEs in Wales.
