Mirado a la ligera, esta cuarta edición de nuestra revista podría parecer una contradicción a los fundamentos de Base, pero es precisamente debido a los vertiginosos cambios sociales, tecnológicos y culturales que se hace necesario volver la mirada hacia el pasado para observarlo con los ojos de hoy, pero también con los ojos imaginarios del futuro. Why is an innovation magazine interested in heritage and why does a discipline that develops at the pace of technological progress look back at the past? At a slight glimpse, this fourth edition of our magazine might seem a contradiction to the fundamentals of Base, but it is precisely due to the rapid social, technological and cultural changes, that it is necessary to look back at the past with the eyes of today, but also with the imaginary eyes of the future.Item Desafiando lo establecido: transformando la forma de enseñar(01/08/2014) Amenábar, AlejandraItem Diseño Responde: de la adversidad a la creatividad en Latinoamérica / Diseño Responde: From adversity to creativity in Latin America(Universidad del Desarrollo.

Governments, international organizations, companies and institutions of all kinds have changed the way they operate.The pandemic has forced us to redefine our plans, pushing us tobe more creative, more connected and coordinated; both to learn from the experiences of others and to collaborate. And it is at this point that adversity looms as an opportunity for Latin America, due to the creative capacity of Latin Americans, which has been recognized by the IDB in its publication “Orange Economy,Innovations you didn't know were from Latin America and the Caribbean” (2017). According to the international organization, the natural and cultural diversity that the region possesses can become a source of creativity, growth and human development. It is therefore necessary to make this talent visible as a valuable asset that allows us to compete in global markets, to generate more employment and development in the countries that make up the region. If we manage to direct this creativity well, changes can be generated. Big changes. New industries and new ventures that can contribute to enhance regional identity and become important engines of the economy, demonstrating that by delivering added value, better returns are obtained and greater wealth is generated. Because creativity generates value and wealth, Jobs and social impact (IDB, 2018). That is why it is important to increase the incentives and efforts that make this reality possible.

Facultad de Diseño, 2023-12) Amenábar, AlejandraEn 2022, la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) estimó que cerca de 15 millones de personas fallecieron por la crisis sanitaria de nuestro planeta, innegablemente, este fenómeno generó conciencia sobre la fragilidad del ser humano en cuanto a su salud física y mental. A pesar de que vivimos años de grandes incertidumbres, debíamos volver a lo cotidiano -a la rutina, al convivir y al sociabilizar- pero poniendo en práctica las lecciones aprendidas; una de ellas, y en la que el diseño tiene un rol fundamental, han sido las necesidades urgentes en salud y la promoción de una mejor calidad de vida para todos. Es por esto que, a fines de 2021 invitamos a académicos y profesionales del ámbito del diseño, la psicología y la salud a trabajar en artículos que exploraran teórica y empíricamente, desafíos y oportunidades, respondiendo a la pregunta: ¿De qué manera el Diseño puede proporcionar respuestas que mejoren la salud, el bienestar y la calidad de vida de las personas? In the year 2022, the World Health Organisation (WHO) estimated that around 15 million people died directly or indirectly due to the health crisis that our planet experienced. This phenomenon undeniably raised awareness of the fragility of human beings in terms of their physical and mental health. Despite experiencing immense uncertainty, we eventually had to return to our daily routines and socialise with others. However, we must apply the lessons learned during this time, especially regarding health and improving everyone's quality of life. Design plays a crucial role in meeting these urgent needs. At the end of 2021, we invited experts from design, psychology, and health to collaborate on papers exploring challenges and opportunities related to answering a specific question: How can Design provide answers that improve people's health, wellbeing and quality of life?
