Rights through Making

Name Ambra Trotto
Advisors Kees Overbeeke, Caroline Hummels

Rights through Making is an international research project that combines ethics and skills through sharing the language of making among cultures.
In this context, design handles the responsibility of transforming the world through products and systems that empower people towards the application of Universal human rights in daily life. By encouraging the integration of newest technologies with saper fare (local craftsmanship), we aim to design products
and systems that express the genius loci and reinforce the symphony of diversity in a globalized market.
The process of designing promotes the collaboration of different cultures through Making, as the main tool for intercultural understanding.
