International Co-design Workshop
Are you interested in joining a partnership of people, businesses and organisations committed to creating irresistible circular societies by participatory design?
If you, and those you work with, are keen to build better societies and ambitious about tackling the challenges of overshoot, climate change and biodiversity, - let’s join forces and help each other define and refine a proposal for a New European Bauhaus that is truly irresistible. Let’s explore the challenges together and open up the process of imagining how collaboration will turn them into opportunities:
Let’s use the power of we and our collective creativity to envision how an irresistible circular society will look, feel and work
Let’s work to realign our relationship to the nature we are part of and develop regenerative cities and landscapes – also for those of us who are not human
Let’s learn from nature how to turn our waste into treasure by designing circular solutions that are exciting, beautiful and can become valuable resources for the generations to come
Interested? – Let’s meet!
