2) Engage local communities in thinking about social inclusion and innovation and consequently to co-design new solutions for the future Bergen city

UD >> From Regulation to Innovation
UD >> From Accessibility to Inclusion
UD >> From Barriers to Sustainability
Moderating Interdisciplinary Diversity > varying definitions of design across disciplines. E.g. "We are engineers and we do not design.�
Moderating Interdisciplinary Diversity > varying definitions of design across disciplines E.g. could not deliver solid solutions
Igniting Design Citizenship Instead of "design for all", we are working on "design with all" and considering the role of citizens with special design skills, designers could even focus on "design by all".
Design for all >>> Design with all UD = diverse definitions of universality borrowed from or inspired by different disciplines?
