Feira Trato: experiência em design e economia solidária

Abstract

The Trato Fair was a classroom experience aimed at introducing solidarity economy and participative methodological approaches in design projects. As a theoretical basis, we worked with Vianna et al (2012), Centro Brasil Design (2014), Criando (2014) and Ribeiro e Santos (2017), as well as Business Model Generation, Project Model Canvas, Value Proposition Design, 4D Fluxonomy and Contact Points. The Fair took place at the Escola de Belas Artes da Universidade Federal da Bahia, on January 26 and 27, 2018. As a subject, the discipline allowed the application of approaches and methodologies such as design thinking and also an immersion in solidarity economy, together with the contact with different ways of thinking economy. This experience has allowed students and teachers a vision that overcomes the belief of inevitable limitations and scarcity of resources by creating a sense of collectivity and autonomy guided by a common goal.
