The State of Designing for Good: Navigating Today’s Political Climate
Main Stage
With Jason Schupbach, Jennifer Rittner, Antionette Carroll, Arianne Miller, Jenn Chan, and Victor Udoewa
Designers committed to social impact are working in an era defined by political instability, shrinking resources, and rising community needs. This panel brings together practitioners who apply design to social causes, asking how they sustain their practice, hold onto values, and create meaningful change when the landscape is shifting beneath their feet. Together, they’ll reflect on what’s working, where design is falling short, and how we can continue to design for justice even in difficult times.

Mainstage
With Rasmia Kirmani, Kate Maehr, Michelle Morales, and Elmer Moore
As political and social conditions grow increasingly volatile, nonprofit and public sector leaders are finding new ways to protect their missions and adapt their approaches. This panel brings together social sector leaders to explore how they’ve integrated creative and human-centered practices to navigate uncertainty, engage communities, and push forward systemic change. This is a chance to hear directly from decision-makers about how to design for not only immediate impact, but for long-term resistance and resilience.
