Dear Friends of DDR
Call for contributions in the form of research and practice-oriented papers and event proposals.
DDR2014: The 4th Design, Development & Research Conference with the conference theme: Design for participation: connecting disciplines, people and ideas.
8-10 September 2014, Cape Town, South Africa.
In the year that Cape Town celebrates its designation as World Design Capital 2014 (www.wdccapetown2014.com) this conference offers all participants a special opportunity to contribute to current thinking and questioning around design as a catalyst and strategy for social change. At the same time you can experience the events of the world design capital of which the central theme is: ‘Live Design. Transform Life.’ to focus on the role that design can play in social transformation.
All people who believe that design forms part of their personal and professional ambitions, careers, and activities are invited to participate in this multi-disciplinary conference.
Please note that we will also be having a STUDENT CONFERENCE, so if you have a Masters or Doctoral student who would like to present a paper, this would be an awesome opportunity.
