"Social Design as a Strengthening Strategy for the Community" is a specialized book that explores the application of social design to empower communities. It highlights a project by the Ulpiano Tascón Quintero Foundation, where older women learn the technique of crochet to develop a product line that promotes both diversification and economic strengthening of the group. By combining industrial design with participatory methodology, it presents an innovative approach to product development that centers on the perspectives and goals of the participants. The book provides insights into the creative process and the cultural references that influence the design of the products, including a unique lighting line made from Fique, inspired by the Iguana, a protected species in the region. It is a valuable resource for professionals and students in the fields of art, music, and design who are interested in social innovation and community projects.
