A proposito di questo titolo

In this episode of GridgeFridge, we sit down with Esther Kang, an assistant professor of design studies in the School of Human Ecology at the University of Wisconsin–Madison.

With a background in art, and social and civic design, Kang has built a career rooted in exploring how design shapes communities, public participation and the systems people interact with every day.

Before coming to UW–Madison, Kang spent over a decade working as a civic designer, strategist and researcher on projects with the federal government and other organizations. Today, she brings those experiences with her into her teaching and community-engaged research.

Kang's current research focuses on hyperscale data center proposals in Wisconsin and how they impact rural and low-income communities. Her work looks at how these projects and proposals take shape, who participates in the decision-making process and how communities experience and respond to changes in their surrounding environments.
