This publication, which we will be launching during Dutch Design Week 2025, is a key part of the broader programme Coalition for Safety (formerly known as Embassy of Safety), which also includes conferences, exhibitions and talk shows. The digital edition will offer a dynamic overview of complex social safety challenges, design interventions and the people behind them. It will showcase the diversity of design — from systems design to UX, from product to social design — and the range of roles designers take on: from raising awareness and researching to proposing, testing and embedding change. Our message is clear: design is no longer a niche activity, but a vital force within the safety domain.
Are you working on a project where design contributes to safety, justice or social resilience? Or have you done so in the past? Submit your project and join a growing network of designers, policymakers, researchers and other changemakers who are collectively seeking new answers to complex challenges.
Deadline for submission: Monday 18 August, 12:00hrs.
