The Journal of Design Strategies is published annually by the School of Design Strategies at Parsons The New School for Design. JDS is an international, peer reviewed journal committed to promoting cutting-edge research at the nexus of design, business, and social innovation. Both the Journal and the Stephan Weiss Memorial Lecture Series, with which the journal is coordinated, are generously supported by the Karan-Weiss Foundation.
We regret to announce that Joke Robaard, scheduled to deliver the final Weiss Lecture of this year on Thursday, has suffered an injury and will be unable to join us this week. Accordingly we are obliged to cancel the lecture.
