EMU INTDW 2023 is selecting a theme that is unique in its thoughtfulness and focuses on important issues that matter to a variety of participants and contributes to the discourse that is relevant to the wider design scene and its developments. This is expected to be reflected in the workshops, curated exhibitions, installations, and the sum of results of the workshops presentations.
The main goal of the EMU INTDW 2023 theme is to motivate multi-layer engagement and trigger complex and cocreative dialogues among various participants. EMU INTDW 2023 encourages critical reflection and discussions about the value of the cocreative approach to design and the challenges that the design community faces today.
