This is the third episode under the ‘Shifting Narratives’ program supported by the British Council SSA Arts. In this episode, we speak with Mathews Wakhungu, a researcher from the Bukusu community. He explains how cultural anthropology impacts our thoughts, actions, and design choices. We also learn about Kungu Labs, a research and design lab that uses ethnographic research for human-centered design and social impact innovation. Adrian invites us to consider a more holistic approach to design, focused on life-centered design. Join us for a thought-provoking conversation on the intersection of cultural anthropology, design, and social impact. *For the best experience, please use a headset/earphones.
