Darshan Karwat

Associate Professor, School for the Future of Innovation in Society

Hello!  I run re-Engineered, an interdisciplinary group that embeds environmental protection, social justice, peace, and human rights in engineering.  We work on questions like:    

• What is the nature of community-based engineering and scientific collaborations?  How can we understand them, and build more of them, especially for environmental, climate, and energy challenges?  
• How do public values affect the design of technologies?  
• What does the future of environmental governance look like?
• How can space systems be designed to have a mitigated environmental impact? 
• How can engineering promote animal thriving?
• What is the moral and social responsibility of engineers?

I also work with colleagues to run Constellation Prize.
