Community-led Design: The future of Journalism?

Shirish Kulkarni and Mattia Peretti explore the transformative
potential of community-led design in this episode of the b°
future podcast – your podcast for journalism and constructive
dialogue, brought to you by the Bonn Institute. 


  


When we at the Bonn Institute talk about constructive journalism,
we’re talking about journalism that centers on people’s needs.
And what better way to know what these are than by asking them
directly? Or, going one step further, giving them control of the
journalism design process?  


  


The “News for All” project is an inspiring example of such
community-led design. Shirish is one of the project’s innovators:
he’s the News Innovation Research Fellow of Media Cymru and the
Cardiff University Journalism School. In this b° future episode,
he’ll explain why he talks about self-protection instead of news
avoidance in relation to marginalized communities, and why
journalists should think more like product designers. Shirish is
joined by Mattia Peretti, a learning-experience designer and
Knight Fellow with the International Center for
Journalists.

The non-profit Bonn Institute addresses the media industry's
growing need for networking and knowledge exchange on
constructive and user-centered approaches to journalism. Through
applied research, publications, events and training, the
institute aims to further develop journalism by placing people’s
interests at the heart of our work, which is especially
important in light of societal challenges.
