The 7th Relating Systems Thinking and Design Symposium (RSD7) aims at promoting an international debate on the multiple applications and purposes on which the systems thinking in design is developed towards sustainability. The symposium will generate nurturing interdisciplinary collaborations and discussions around the topic “Challenging complexity by Systemic Design towards sustainability”, involving academics, designers and professionals.
We invite contributions addressing collaborative research domains in which design is boosting innovation and sustainability (http://www.rsd7.org/call-for-contributions/). Both academics and professionals are welcomed to provide their view on how systems thinking in design disciplines can help our societies, economies and companies to face the challenge of sustainability in complex environments.
The selection process will be done on long abstracts. We will invite authors to submit the full paper soon after the RSD7 Symposium: we believe this will make the debate more effective, providing authors useful insights to be included in the final proceedings.
A special call invites students, designers and academics to submit visualization works that will be part of the exhibition “Visualizing complex systems”, concerning how design can help visualizing, explaining and navigating complexity
