Power in Transformation examines how design, creativity, and activism can become tools for reimagining systems of power and for building equitable, sustainable futures. Through its exploration of themes such as co-creation, pedagogy, economies, and movements, the book unpacks the complexities of transformation as a process rooted in collaboration, reflection, and action. It challenges readers to question inherited systems of exclusion, explore alternative ways of being and knowing, and engage with the narratives that shape resistance and solidarity. Combining critical insights with practical approaches, this book invites deep engagement with the urgent task of fostering meaningful change in theory and practice.
