Design as the practice of care and empathy 
The task of designers is often to connect us with one another but also with the world around us, with other species, with the planet: in other words, to practice empathy. In this book, readers will find both utopian propositions and practical solutions for reinterpreting and reconnecting with the world around them, taking food as a key medium of encounter.\nContributors include: Ekin Ozbicer, Mariana Pestana, Susan Lanzoni, Naz Sahin, Billie Muraben, Sumitra Upham, FRAUD, Luigi Coppola and Vivien Sansour and Pelin Tan, Aslıhan Demirtas, Black Athena Collective, theOtherDada, TiriLab, Counterspace, Anna Puigjaner (MAIO) with Alina Abouelenin, Asli Uludag, Dele Adeyemo, Young Curators Group, Eylül Senses, Ulya Soley, Nur Horsanali, Studio Ossidiana, Orkan Telhan + elii, Ibiye Camp, Ben Thorp Brown, Paula Gaetano Adi, Meriem Bennani, Calum Bowden, Jawa El Khash, Emmy Bacharach, Alice dos Reis, Macedo Cannat and Future Anecdotes.
