We are on a mission to leave a lasting impact from World Design Congress 2025 by equipping designers with the green skills they need to fuel the green transition.
Design is a 'frontline' green skill, it leads the way in creating products, buildings and places that use fewer resources, reuses them or even grows them, as well as being a ‘hearts and minds’ green skill in the way it makes sustainable living the easy and desirable choice.
There is a critical need to upskill designers:
of designers think the demand for environmental design is going to grow.
of designers think they have the skills to meet the demand for environmental design.
of the UK’s designers believe their education has equipped them to design for planet.
