Personal Interests and Passions
"Sudebi is a designer of learning, facilitator, thinker, narrative designer, educator and singer. She designs experiences, engagement and environment using multiple modalities and media that allow people to think and have dialogue, make their thinking and interaction visible and thus enable them to design their own solutions and narratives. Storytelling is her passion and so is the interface of science and humanities. Sudebi emphasises on socially, environmentally and culturally relevant issues while inter-weaving design thinking, learning theories, art, literature especially focusing on oral traditions, crafts and performing arts. She has previously engaged in the areas of development, communication and community media, collaborating with organizations and individuals globally. She focuses on bringing in inquiry driven participatory, context-based design and transdisciplinarity into her work. Her areas of work include embedding socio-political issues, in school /university curricula, which she believes would lead to an understanding of the complexities of various systems through their inter-connectedness, resulting in catalyzing action by youth and children. One of her key areas of interest is critical media literacy including the audio-visual medium in addition to folklore and oral, musical storytelling traditions. Currently her research areas are: understanding the role of local wisdom through narrative sources, in addressing complex problems, re-defining what curatorial practices might be and solving problems of governance & sustainability and understanding the intersections of pedagogy, design and inclusion."
