live events, open calls, and campaigns all over the world to promote the power of design

WDCD Live Returns to Amsterdam

 

On 5 July 2024, hundreds of creatives, activists, policymakers and start-ups will meet at the Muziekgebouw in Amsterdam for the 12th edition of our annual festival.

This year’s programme features talks, workshops and exhibitions on design, climate action and social justice. Join us to connect with fellow change-makers and explore how creative activism can be a powerful tool for disruption, transformation and healing.
