Resilience

In this activity, we use a seed-like topic issue to trigger an urgency and perhaps start intrinsic conversations between designers and the people around them. By practicing this activity, we hope it could help designers to see the blindspots (misuses), practice evaluative and critical thinking skills.

"The hierarchical situation - the position of the researcher as expert knower - invalidates any data that come out of the research process (mies 1983:123). Just hierarchy produces data that are by definition invalid, so it it contended that where non- hierarchical relationships between researcher and researches exist, the resulting data are intrinsically more valid(Acker, Barry and Esseveld 1991:146)."
