Do designers have a responsibility towards shaping our society’s conscience? How can design compel disaffected audiences to take action on social issues? Can posters meaningfully address problems such as child labor, urban inequality and global warming? How is it possible to sustain a career designing for social causes?

BETTER, the second-annual Princeton University design conference, brings together students and renowned professionals together to confront these questions.

Videos for some of the speakers are now up. View them on the Program page.
