Abstract
This project developed seminars with professors, undergraduate, and graduate students from a variety of disciplines in order to come up with innovative design approaches to the issue of gendered violence in Ciudad Juárez. The participants studied the literature on gendered violence in the city and created proposals for designs with gendered violence as the central focus, which included plans for bus stops, experiments in the use of storytelling in design research, and infographics on sexist attitudes among the design students at the university.
