- <p>Democracy is facing a crisis characterized by the erosion of fundamental rights. Children are not strangers to this new scenario, as they already face many online hostilities threatening diversity and inclusion in their everyday lives. We argue that democracy thrives with increased participation, and that children have a lot to say and expertise that needs to be acknowledged in society and in citizenship education in particular. We argue that Scandinavian participatory design and its principles—especially those that advocate for democratic methods, design as futures making, and children’s transformative agency fostered through computing education—can help cultivate democratic cultures and thus show great promise for children’s citizenship education linked with technology design and use. We introduce the concept of ’design citizenship’ as a key concept to develop such pedagogy of hope, highlighting its potential through past critical design and technology projects with children in various learning environments.</p>
