On 4 June, 'Fair Share: Design for Justice' takes place.

While safety, sustainability, and privacy receive ample attention in the design process, the value of justice has been somewhat neglected. The value of justice is about being fair to all, about the just distribution of benefits and harms, but also about just procedures and recognizing and overcoming existing injustices in society. It might also require restoring the detrimental effects of past injustices.
Justice is essential to consider in design, especially given the increasing complexity of technological systems related to societal issues like energy transition, urban planning, and artificial intelligence. By choosing Design for Justice as its annual theme, the the Design for Values institute at the Delft University of Technology wants to raise awareness and provide guidance for integrating justice-related questions into design processes.

The institute aims to fundamentally change how we understand and accept technology, resulting in a more just and inclusive society. With inspiring keynotes, engaging workshops and the thesis awards finale, this event serves as a stepping stone to bring these discussions forward.
