Who We Are

Together, with our member organizations from around the world, we have embraced the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as a framework for action that has the potential to simultaneously offer positive social and environmental impact as well as financial return and brand value. We do this by engaging our community in collaborative efforts and by carrying out our international programming.

Our programmes are designed to enable collaborations among the global industrial design community, to identify challenges and opportunities and to address some of the world’s most significant economic, social and environmental challenges, from a design perspective.
