How do we design inclusive environments for and with children? On the occasion of the exhibition Designing Childhood: A History of Design for Children at the Design Museum Brussels, we invite you to a conversation on contemporary design practices that place children at the centre. Together with three inspiring speakers, we will explore how inclusivity, play, and pedagogy take shape in practice.
Lieke Lenaerts will present the collaboration between Product Design students at LUCA School of Arts and children with hand or arm disabilities. Emma Ribbens will share her experiences with projects centred on play culture, including the Nüdel Kart, developed for children living in refugee camps. Wim De Graeve will discuss his work at Art Basics for Children, where he designs and builds creative learning environments.
The event will be held in English, but you are welcome to join the conversation in Dutch or French. We will do our best to offer ad hoc (whisper) translations if needed.
Tickets and more information will be available soon. (Please note that the times may still change.)
