    Diseño sostenible: de la ética del consumo a la ética de la producción / Sustainable design: from the ethics of consumption to the ethics of production
    (Universidad del Desarrollo. Facultad de Diseño, 2024-11) Plaza Parrochia, José Miguel; Necochea Puelma, Antonia Clemencia
    The controversial concept of ethical consumption has been profusely associated with design practice in recent decades. However, on many occasions, its implementation is assumed as beneficial in the definition of all kinds of design projects without considering the nuances and/or considerations regarding its social, cultural, and productive implications. This paper seeks to help remedy the uncritical adoption of ethical consumption in design practice. To achieve this objective, we performed a multidisciplinary bibliographic discussion that exposes valuable background information to generate an argued position regarding ethical consumption and its link with the logic of sustainable design. The results derived from the analysis of the existing literature suggest an early positioning of the designer's participation in the design process. Finally, some possible ways of disciplinary confrontation of the environmental crisis that could generate higher levels of innovation are proposed.

    Editorial: Sistenibilidad disruptiva: sociedad, innovación y futuros / Disruptive sustainability: society, innovation and futures
    (Universidad del Desarrollo. Facultad de Diseño, 2024-11) Contreras Correa, Paulina; Toledo, Ignacio; Pérez Ojeda, David; Stead, Michael; Bakırlıoğlu, Yekta
    Climate change, driven by human activities, is one of the greatest challenges facing humanity today. Our excessive consumption and reliance on fossil fuels have brought us to a critical tipping point that demands immediate action towards more sustainable practices prioritising the climate crisis and social equity. This special issue aims to explore how design can contribute to accelerating transitions towards sustainable futures. It focuses on developing more sustainable solutions and practices and on how these can displace unsustainable incumbent solutions. This raises new questions regarding co-design methods in social sustainability, which may affect the adoption and accessibility of sustainable solutions, ensuring they are equitable and just. Moreover, it explores how design collaborations can be structured within open-sustainable design networks and how design can be strategically directed to promote paths for innovation towards desired sustainable futures

    Gestión de redes de cooperación para la sostenibilidad: experiencia de la red Latinoamericana de innovación frugal / Management of cooperation networks for sustainability: Experience of the Latin American Network for Frugal Innovation
    (Universidad del Desarrollo. Facultad de Diseño, 2024-11) López Santiago, Luis Miguel; Manzi-Puertas, Mario Andrés; Torres Reyes, Stephanie; Carbonell García, Diego Fernando; Marfil Rivero, Michel
    Sustainability requires the sharing of knowledge, resources and capacities. Cooperation Networks (CN) are essential to promote strategies and approaches that respond to socio-environmental challenges in various territories, particularly in emerging countries. However, CN management is complex, and literature on this matter is scarce. This article identifies and explores CN management practices for sustainability. We studied the Latin American Network for Frugal Innovation (RELIF), which promotes Frugal Innovation as a design approach to sustainability in Latin America. A qualitative methodology was used based on interviews with the Coordinating Committee and thematic analysis. Several effective practices were detected, such as active collaboration, strategic alignment and efficient resource management. We also identified challenges regarding a sound strategic plan and defining an appropriate legal form. These findings are valuable lessons for similar initiatives and provide opportunities to strengthen CN management practices. Future research is recommended to explore appropriate legal structures and develop CN strategies to disseminate sustainability approaches.
