This episode is part of the lists: Decolonizar , Autralia y diseño, D&D in English, Educación en diseño, Investigación en diseño y Territorio y diseño. This is episode number 5 of the series Decolonizing Design Through Dialogue. 

This series is possible thanks to the Design History Society, which awarded me the Decolonising Design History Grant. They also advised me on whom to interview outside of Latin America, so that this series would have a more international perspective. This series features interviewees and projects from India, Argentina, Spain, Ghana, the USA, Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, Australia, Ecuador, and Paraguay. It is a trilingual series, with episodes in Portuguese, Spanish, and English. I interview designers, artists, and researchers.
