ColectivoAliadosis dedicated to promote social design, and aims want to establish anetwork of people who want to give their opinion about social problems.

Colectivo Aliados was launched in april 2003 with the first project “Aliados vs Aliados” to protest about the invasion in Iraq. In this first project we received about 60 posters and did the web distribution by e-mail and continue with other social projects in the same way: everybody who wants to participate can submit artwork and the collective distributed it in several ways.

The social design manifest:
  • The design is not a tool for ego-self-promotion.
  • The design is not art, although it takes several of their languages.
  • The design of communication is not restricted to advertising.
  • The social design is a way of bringing solutions space object and communication to the real problems without waiting for that utility.
  • The design solutions should not be the result of aesthetic fashion or the whims of the designer formal, but the real needs of each project.
  • The designer must work with the procedures more environmentally friendly and sustainable within its power.
  • The design must take into account the possible uses that can make its products persons with different abilities.
  • The design should not be designed only for those who can afford it as an object of luxury.
  • The design is cooperating in educating society and over time is a reflection of culture.
  • The design should lose the shop windows and architectural niches and melted into the streets.
