How has the collaboration between designers and government evolved? What was exciting, surprising, and what worked well? And how does government itself need to change to truly make space for design when addressing complex societal challenges?
During our annual conference at Dutch Design Week, we’ll share insights from research and practice, showcase inspiring examples from the Netherlands and abroad, and explore together with participants who wants to start working with a design-led approach — and what is needed to make that possible.
The full programme will be announced soon. Save your spot now!
