Full Article:

This interdisciplinary work, which integrates teaching, research and extension, incorporated students from 5 Latin American universities of Architecture and different Design Degrees. The experience that was developed in the first semester of 2021, during the Covid-19 pandemic, deals with the contribution that design and digital media can make to the social problems of local communities. Through the collaborative design of artifacts, interfaces, spaces and representations that articulate the natural, the artificial and the digital, the objective was to value and make visible the natural and cultural heritage of "La Boca", a coastal neighborhood of the city of Santa Fe, located in the flood valley of the Paraná River. Innovative ideas were provided to drive sustainable development processes through proposals that rescue the knowledge and resources of the place using digital mediations. The article analyzes the conceptual bases, methodology and results of this difficult but original experience
