We're a virtual "third place" for changemakers who refuse to accept extraction, coloniality, and complacency as the default.
We offer spaces and resources to help you navigate (and survive) oppressive systems, dream up and build alternatives, and connect with values-aligned peers.
While profit and power dominate modern history, we don't have to continue these violent legacies — neither now nor in our futures.
Get a glimpse into design changemaking, an ethos, practice, and movement that can guide us toward more liberatory presents and futures.
Get the guidance, tools, and peer support to survive extractive systems and build anti-oppressive ways of working and living.

Hi, I'm Sandra Camacho (She/Her), a.k.a. Sandra By Design. I'm a multicultural designer strategist, learning designer, social justice educator, and community builder based in Paris, France.
Design Changemakers emerged out of a desire to support changemakers in designing in service of collective liberation, equity, and justice. I'm excited to be in community with you as convener and steward of this shared space.
I started my career at Google and have spent over 16 years enabling people and organizations to innovate, live their values, and design for change.
