Redirective Practice
Redirective practice, a concept from Tony Fry, describes design's responsibility to actively drive positive, future-oriented social and ecological transitions rather than only solving problems as they arise. The book cites it as a concept that reinforces the Framework's own aims.
'Tony Fry's concept of Redirective Practice emphasizes design's potential and responsibility to actively foster positive socio-ecological transitions through collaborative, future-oriented, and ethically conscious action, moving beyond merely solving immediate problems' (Ch9 §094), cited by the book as one of the 'vital contemporary concepts and movements' with which the Symbiotic Design Framework 'finds strong resonance and reinforcement'.
