Preliminary study of participatory and nature-inclusive design approaches
Preliminary study of participatory and nature-inclusive design approaches
Samenvatting
This paper aims to develop a working strategy for a larger research project to help urban designers shift their human-centred design practices to a more nature-inclusive approach. The interest in developing innovative design perspectives that incorporate nature stems from the need to address the challenges of biodiversity loss by adopting a perspective that prioritises the needs of non-human species. The methodology used presents an analysis of participatory and nature-inclusive design approaches and examines how they have been conceptualised and operationalised. A final discussion reflects on the importance of advancing the development of a nature-inclusive design discipline that focuses on the needs of non-human species and transferring participatory design concepts tailored to humans, such as agency, to non-human communities. Nature-inclusive design has the potential to encourage people to reconnect with nature and value non-human species as much as humans.
