Sustainability and responsibility skills

We are active players for the realization of the sustainability transition in the multidisciplinary design field. We aim to create a framework for the success of the design industry’s sustainability skills. Design that relies in the planetary boundaries has a decisive role in the sustainability transition. Design is also a driver of change: as a means of innovation, it can be applied to the challenges of responsibility in all stages of the life cycle of a process, product or service. The successful companies of the future are those utilizing the opportunities of design today.

The instructions also gives recommendations for designers’ professional work with the topics of environmental sustainability, cultural diversity, inclusion, and accessibility.
