  • What can children tell us through their interactions with everyday clothes? And what can they learn about themselves and others through clothing? Why and how can young people inspire a more ethical fashion industry driven by D4CR principles? It takes no less than three experts to address these questions through the analysis of collaborative experiences of co-creation with children. Let’s embark into their journey and explore with us the learning power of clothes!

    Join us on this exploration with Aude Le Guennec, Design Anthropologist, Design Anthropologist, co-curator “Dressed for School” (in partnership with the French National Museum of Education), Laetitia Barbu, designer and artistic director at Ark-Ellia Design and Illustrious Lab, and Anne-Charlotte Hartmann-Bragard, expert in brand strategy, image and communication and founder of Studio Abi, promoting textile education.

  • Applying children's rights in design for kids is a win-win-win, for the company, for the product and for the children. It’s the smartest thing to do from a business perspective. This is the culture today. Millennial parents really care about ethical design. You can see that in different parts of their lives, including what they give to their children. If the product is safe, private, child-centered, age-appropriate, allows play and learning (these things are all part of child rights) - you are actually giving your product a huge advantage with this group of audience.

    And it’s easy to do and easy to start. Once you try, you won't understand how you didn't do it before!

  • Age appropriate is a trendy and widely used term in designing for children. This term is also sometimes unfortunately, overused or even abused, both intentionally and unintentionally. In this episode, we'll learn from and with a special guest who is my go-to expert on the topic. We'll dive into what age appropriate refers to it's history and research where and how it is used today, as well as how we can recognize well-made age appropriate practices, products, and solutions, and make better choices in our work.
