Workshop/Demo Belonging in San Diego: How design contributes to our shared future
The Othering and Belonging Institute invites you to join us and fellow belonging co-creators for a two-hour workshop exploring the importance of designing for belonging in San Diego and beyond. The session will offer grounding in belonging and dig into practices that bring it to life. We will hear from designers across varying scopes and learn how they actively advance belonging through their work. We will engage participants through discussion and questions, creating a space of shared meaning-making and inspired action. Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of how to actively build for belonging, make connections to fellow belonging builders, and take home insight and inspiration of how they too can incorporate belonging into their work and lives.
