ICIS Seminar

September / oktober 2009

ICIS afholder i samarbejde med Danske Designere en seminarrække om bæredygtighed, klimaændringer og designbranchen.

Danmark skal reducere CO2 udslippet med 21 pct. i 2009-2012 i forhold til niveauet i 1990. Det kræver en stor indsats. Der skal yderligere reduceres med 50 procent før år 2050. Hvordan kan designere og designbranchen gøre en reel forskel? Hvordan møder vi den største udfordring, designerne har stået overfor i den forholdsvis korte tid professionen har eksisteret? Hvad bliver designerens rolle i denne proces, hvor infrastrukturer og systemer på tværs af samfundet skal endevendes og skabes på ny? Hvordan kommer man over barriererne, og hvordan udnyttes mulighederne?
