Abstract

This chapter is an excerpt from the Global Health Little Book Series, Volume 1, on Design & COVID-19 (ISBN: 978-1-86220-392-1). It is the output of a Conversation Session conducted during the Design Research Society (DRS) 2020 Conference, hosted by members of the Global Health Special Interest Group (SIG), and entitled "COVID-19: Reframing the Role of Design."

"This Little Book tells you about how the design research community is tackling Covid-19 across different parts of the world. It explores how and why design is uniquely positioned to contribute to the global pandemic relief effort. The first volume in this series, the Little Book presents the Global Health Special Interest Group and what it stands for. It then presents, through eight case studies, different ways in which design research is addressing some of the challenges posed by Covid-19 to our individual lifestyles and society."
