Abstract

We describe a participatory approach for involving digital fabrication stakeholders in a co-creation exercise focused on promoting, adopting, and developing safety culture in digital fabrication. Participants shared their perceptions of safety in digital fabrication and engaged in the ideation, design, and prototyping of instructional storyboards for promoting safety in digital fabrication. We also describe a conceptual model of safety culture in digital fabrication built upon three principles, namely professional, social, and environmental responsibilities. We reflect on how the co-creation approach can contribute to adopting a safety culture in digital fabrication through the mediating roles of social and experiential learning.
