Sustainability in Design: NOW!
Challenges and Opportunities for Design Research, Education and Practice in the XXI Century.
LeNS Conference, Bangalore, 29th September to 1st October 2010
The Sustainability in Design: Now! Conference is a platform for sharing the latest knowledge and experiences in product, service and system design, to promote sustainable systems thinking in design education, research and practice communities. The conference approach is to look at various stakeholders in this arena - designers, design educators and design researchers - as a unique learning community. The objective is the creation of a new ethos, within such a community, enabling all possible synergies and fruitful processes of knowledge and know-how osmosis and cross-fertilisation.
