Location: UCL, Roberts Building, Room 508
Speakers: Dr Adam Drazin, Co-ordinator MA Culture, Materials & Design, Dept of Anthropology, UCL, Mary Rose Cook, Co-founder and managing director, Uscreates

This session will focus on practical ethics in the context of research and design in relation to public/collective/social issues. As the series up until now has shown, there are lots of designers, managers and entrepreneurs doing research and engaging users and stakeholders in participatory processes, but with sometimes limited consideration of ethical issues. Adam and Mary will share perspectives from their work on ways of thinking about these issues, and highlight some projects which bring them to life.
