Dr. Daniela Peukert is the Academic Program Director and Professor of Design & Sustainability Transformation at Tomorrow University of Applied Sciences. As a product designer with a PhD in Sustainability Sciences, she develops sustainable products that have a positive impact. She is an expert in design(erly) thinking, user experience research, and the role of design for sustainability transformations. In her research, she explores design prototyping and material metaphors to foster integration and knowledge co-production within transdisciplinary processes and works towards a more-than-human-centered design approach.
