Description : With design fiction, it is possible to materialise prospective scenarios (as plausible as possible) and then explore and discuss them. The aim is to place learners in a future situation and have them play a role using artefacts that express these futures.
In this project, students take charge of an executive committee meeting taking place in 2030. Following numerous incidents (including material shortages and extreme weather events), they must begin thinking about a new strategic plan to transform their company into a regenerative enterprise by 2035.
Objective: This project involves developing a design fiction teaching tool that can be used with master's students and engineering students, as well as in organisations, to raise awareness and provide training on the future challenges of regenerative business models.
Planification :
Between May and September 2025: development of an initial design fiction scenario and testing with Master's students
Between September and November 2025: improvement of the first scenario and testing of the new version
December 2025: finalisation of the workshop and creation of a training kit
