As a frontline green skill, design has the power to place the planet at the heart of our products, places and businesses. But with only 43% of designers feeling they have the capability to meet growing green demands, we need to prioritise upskilling designers for the green transition, and this requires effort across the ecosystem: at school, at university and in industry.
Join the Design Council and industry experts from across design disciplines to discuss the green skills needed in their sector and the Design Council’s exciting new mission to upskill 1 million designers by 2030.
Speakers:
Rachel Moriarty – Director of Skills, the Design Council
Michele Gregson – General Secretary and CEO, National Society for Education in Art & Design (NSEAD)
Sandra Booth – Director of Policy and External Relationships, Council for Higher Education in Art & Design (CHEAD)
Mark Curtis – Head of Innovation and Thought Leadership, Accenture Song
BEDA and Design Council invite all BEDA members and interents to join the event.
