Design Redefined: AI, Climate, and the Future We Design
Nov 6, 2025
About
Design Redefined is a series of events seeking to challenge our perception of design as a process of enhancing aesthetics, usability, or marketability and moving towards a deeper understanding of it as a powerful tool for change.
Appropriate for high school, undergraduate, and graduate students, as well as design professionals, each session will feature a panel discussion featuring thought leaders, followed by a hands-on exploration of key design principles, light refreshments, and networking. This series is a collaboration with the MIT Museum and Innovators for Purpose.
AI, Climate, and the Future We Design
Every second counts in the fight against climate change. AI can speed the clock forward by its intensive energy use, or turn it back by helping us predict storms, cut emissions, and imagine sustainable futures. Exploring AI’s full climate story: its real environmental costs and its potential benefits can help us make informed, value-aligned choices about the technologies we create and use? Join us as we ask how might we use design to tell this story and spark intentional AI solutions.
Accessibility
Our events are enriched by your presence and we are committed to making them accessible to everyone.
