The prestigious World Design Congress is coming to London for the first time in over 50 years.
Bringing together design innovators, business leaders and academic thinkers from around the globe to connect, share learning and inspire action around this year’s theme; Design for Planet.
The 34th edition of the biannual event will be hosted at the iconic Barbican Centre for two days of inspirational keynotes, dynamic break-out sessions, and opportunities for intelligent collision. Make sure you’re in the room when design decides to collectively face the climate and nature crisis.
The effects of climate change are more evident than ever, and this global crisis needs a global response. Designers and commissioners of design all around the world have a critical role to play in designing a regenerative future by reducing carbon emissions and increasing biodiversity:
Design shapes the world and holds huge power.
Together we can design a better future
Driving zero emissions through innovation, technology, and behavior change.
Reimagining materials, re-using waste and creating a fair, circular economy.
Regenerating places by reviving biodiversity and building skills for people to care for their community and environment.
