This article introduces the concept of the ‘safe space’ in design interventions: a socially developed environment for thoughts, actions, and mutual learning in political and contested contexts. The safe space responds to current challenges within decolonial design practices and calls for a plurality of knowledge and voices. We present a study in which we developed safe spaces with young Namibians by combining core elements of design anthropology and community-based participatory design through interventions, dialogic engagements, and co-design. We demonstrate how the intentional design practice of a safe space enables new ways of working in a contested context. The article presents a framework for designing and developing safe spaces, focusing on working with multiple temporalities and the social production of spaces.
