Sophie Tendai is a design researcher at Stby Amsterdam, but is originally from Zimbabwe. She has a background in circular design, where she developed educational programs for regenerative design that encouraged local knowledge exchange and traditional circular design practices across communities in the Southern African context. Sophie is passionate about creating sustainable solutions that are contextually nuanced and effective by centring local needs and narratives. She focuses on decolonising the design field in all parts of her work, aiming to expand toward broader perspectives on what design is in order to give a wider range of design practices more space and resources to innovate.
