Edu Talk: Design as an Enabler of Hope: The Curious Case of Ecosystem Restoration is a lecture by Fabio Palma, Strategic Partnerships Director at the global foundation Plant for the Planet. During his lecture he emphasised the importance of ecosystems and cross-collaboration among the different stakeholders to boost sustainability practices and promote design thinking mindset as a tool for innovation, in a VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous) context; design as the meeting point of many disciplines and of the needs and expectations of all stakeholders; and the power of design to restore or redesign existing ecosystems, redefining people’s daily interactions and influencing the quality of their life experience.
