The understanding of service design is changing and it needs to! For a more systemic perspective on #servicedesign check out our new paper on service ecosystem design in the Journal of Service Research available open access: https://t.co/oROQZWwua0 @KaisaKH @WetterEdman

A big yes to this call amid the current Canadian healthcare crisis (especially if such an incubator focused on issues of equity and linked to community-based approaches)!

System change NOT just collective management in a a better suit, it’s requires us to acknowledge the mass agency & sovereignty of the agents of a systems with shared fates and missions, system change needs system learning & dev capabilities - not output or outcome controls

Next Thursday I will be at Technische Universität Braunschweig sharing some thoughts on design, oppression, solidarity, and care. November 10th, 2 pm Germany (GMT+1), 10 am Brazil (GMT-3). No registration is needed. Check out the link at https://t.co/DCgOLkQGko DM for + info

A lovely synopsis of some key takeaways on the evolving discussions in systemic design from @RSDSymposium

@wittster worth a listen in your explorations into links between care and capitalism 🎧

Highly recommend this podcast episode on the new book “Health Communism” from @DeathPanel_ which offers a refreshing & critical look at how health has been commodified under capitalism & what a more expansive framework of all care for all people entails: https://t.co/rOt1Ql88xR

If you missed the online panel on Legacies of Oppression in Systemic Design @RSDSymposium you can check out the recording here: https://t.co/pxtjwDgl7C So many great framings from the panellists to consider. Big thanks @fredvanamstel, Shana Agid & Melanie Goodchild! #RSD11

And the presentation slides for Quilting Care Pattern here: https://t.co/poQSp2lQP4

So enjoyed sharing a more personal making project @RSDSymposium on Quilting Care Patterns - Remaking Our Social Fabric. I am learning a lot by materializing social structures with others in this way. You can find my conference paper here: https://t.co/TgtoUEddPZ

Big thanks to the RSD organizers @uniofbrighton for making space and setting such a lovely tone for these important conversations (@_ben_sweeting et al)! And huge gratitude to all who contributed. So much to continue grappling with. #RSD11

How does reframing positioning from settlers to treaty people aid us in taking responsibility for our role in upholding the rights of Indigenous people? Thx @YEGShiftLab @SinghingSam @JodiCalahoo #rsd11

How would incorporating our bodies and all of their taboos into our understanding of systemic design, alter our understanding of and approach to social systems (e.g. leaky boundaries)? Thx Sally Sutherland #rsd11

How can the systemic design community relate respectfully to and learn with and from other ways of knowing and being without appropriating? Thx @iclanda #rsd11

If we recognize crip time, not just the time it takes to directly engage in participation, how does that shift who and how we engage when we do participatory design? Thx Chantel Spencer #Rsd11

How can we embrace deep, speculative time and respond slowly and thoughtfully to urgency and crisis? Thanks @racheljwilson_ #RSD11

If as we create the world we destroy it (e.g. making a chair destroys a tree), do the things I am creating justify what I am destroying? Thx Tony Fry #RSD11

If we have created incomprehensible layers of complexity that are getting in the way of our energy for the essentials, how can we design to create space for the necessary change? Thx Håkan Edeholt #RSD11

What does it mean to move toward simultaneously healing our systems and ourselves (rather than savior-driven problem solving)? Thx Mathilda Tham & Melanie Goodchild #RSD11

The questions bubbling up from presentations & conversations at #RSD11 for me include (🧵): If pre-determined ends are the antithesis to life, how can design shift from form to form-giving & embrace its temporality amid ongoing transformation? Thx @gasperak
