Today on the show we have the wonderful Iria Lopez, a UK based service designer. I recently stumbled upon Iria’s work on LinkedIn where she was running a workshop. What struck me was the theme - Designing for loneliness. We speak about the importance of gaining greater context of why people congregate and attend extra-curricular events such as Design meet-ups etc. and that is of human-connection. The importance of being seen, and being heard and part of something. We chat about what we can do as change-makers to be more aware of this context and include it in our facilitation sessions that many of us do quite regularly - and that is to make space for it.https://www.linkedin.com/in/iria-lopez-51b1975/Creators & Guests Gerry Scullion - Host Stef Murphy - Producer Like what we do?
