Sustainability is unavoidable. It will happen anyway by the interplay of ecological, social and economic disasters. But we could take initiatives: we can design and develop this transition in a process of collective decisions and actions.<\/p>\n
This series of conferences co-develops with the Master in Eco-Social Design<\/a> at the Faculty of Design and Art of the Free University of Bozen-Bolzano. The 2018 edition will take place 22-25 March, in Bozen-Bolzano<\/strong> and in Obervinschgau, a beautiful upper valley and a hotspot of eco-social innovation. This year’s focus is:<\/p>\n With Assemble Studio<\/strong><\/a> (UK), Adelheid Biesecker<\/a><\/strong> (DE),\u00a0Viktoria Heinrich \/ IDRV<\/a><\/strong> (AT), Officine Zero<\/strong><\/a> (IT), Brave New Alps<\/strong><\/a> (IT\/UK) and many more.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Commons are resources\/projects\/creations that are managed by groups of people, who are not owners, but rather co-responsible and more or less equal users and creators. The verb \u00bbcommoning\u00ab emphasizes that commons have to be created, designed, maintained, defended and\/or reclaimed. Commoning is gaining traction as an alternative economy and culture.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We will tackle issues related to the question \u00bbWhat can design do for commons?\u00ab with international experts and local heros, coming from very diverse backgrounds. As always our conference offers a convivial mix of inspiring presentations, challenging discourses, intense workshops and delicious food in a sunny environment.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n All about the conference<\/strong><\/a> | Schedule<\/a> | Registration<\/a><\/strong> (open until 16 March, free for students<\/strong>)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\nIn between you, me and everything we do.
