We welcome students, alumni, teachers, researchers, current collaborators, as well as public, private and third sector organisations to explore how design and contribute to sustainable transformation and organisational development.
During the event, you will listen to insightful keynote presentations by Leap for Life (Halmstad), Founders Loft and Passalen (Gothenburg).
You will also experience thought-provoking student projects that question status quo whilst suggesting ways forward. Importantly, you will also get time to network and engage in conversations about how design can be utilised in complex organisational settings to open new perspectives and instil alternative ways of working.
The event is aimed at those who are:
- students and alumni of the Embedded Design programme and Business & Design programme. Students from other programmes with an interest in the subject are also welcome
- working in organisations that engage with – or are curious about – design for transformation, development and change
- researchers and teachers with an interest in Embedded design
- interested in exploring new collaborations between academia & practice
A more detailed program will be available soon.
We hope you will join us and contribute to the conversation about the role of design for transformation and organizational change.

This program, part of GU’s Sustainability-Focused programmes, uses interdisciplinary collaboration to address today’s pressing societal challenges. We develop design skills that apply to corporations, institutions, public organisations, and society at large, crafting sustainable and lasting solutions in the form of artefacts, services, social interventions, or organisational redesigns.
