Exclusive to Design Conference ticketholders. Buy yours here.

How can design heal? Warren & Mahoney’s Te Ari Prendergast explores this question by examining the role of healing, ritual, and knowledge in design.

From restoring mātauranga Māori to integrating Indigenous practices with modern technologies, this talk highlights how design can mend past injustices, restore connections to the land, and revitalise cultural traditions.

Drawing parallels with Indigenous approaches worldwide, including Australia, Japan and South America, Te Ari shares how design processes can heal not only communities but also the designers themselves, creating a foundation for a more inclusive and sustainable future.
