Good Design Week 2024, hosted by Swinburne University in collaboration with esteemed partners, embarks on a visionary journey under the theme "Designing with Tomorrow." Building upon the successful legacy of past renditions in 2019 and 2023, this year's event sets the stage for an innovative exploration of how design shapes our future.
In 2023, Good Design Week (GDW) focused on the critical role of design in the preservation of arts, culture, and heritage, attracting over 350 delegates from both local and international spheres. The event served as a vibrant platform for students, academics, researchers, and professionals from the creative industries to exchange insights on safeguarding our cultural legacies through innovative design practices.
This year, "Designing with Tomorrow" aims to extend the dialogue to encompass a broader spectrum of design's potential to innovate, transform, and lead society towards a sustainable, inclusive, and technologically advanced future. GDW 2024 is dedicated to unearthing and celebrating the intersection of design innovation and its impact on our daily lives and the environment. We are calling upon the global community—students, educators, practitioners, and industry leaders—to contribute their visionary ideas, research, and solutions that demonstrate the power of design in creating a better tomorrow.
The event promises an enriching schedule of keynote speeches, plenary sessions, workshops, and exhibitions, inviting participation from a diverse audience eager to witness and contribute to the evolution of design. GDW 2024 is not just an event; it's a movement towards embracing the transformative role of design in addressing the challenges of the future, ensuring a legacy of innovation, sustainability, and cultural enrichment for generations to come.
