Questioning the relationship between design and citizenship is by no means a contemporary issue. Since the industrial revolution, design has never ceased to be at the heart of a multiple debate, navigating between political, aesthetic, ecological and societal discourses. Discussing this relationship between design and citizenship therefore amounts to studying the various approaches that contribute to making design a citizen project, or even an activist project.It is an open invitation between designers and citizens, in order to make and perfect the world, to imagine a common future, a habitable world for all, and a new utopia both individual and collective.For this, classic design approaches seem to be lost in the face of the challenges that our world is encountering, and we know that for each challenge, for each problematic, new methods and new reflections are needed, but also knowing how to deconstruct in order to build better.
