Designing For A Sustainable Future

In 1987 Brundtland defined sustainable development as "development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs." [1] The simplicity of this statement is seductive - but what really constitutes sustainable development, and defines the role of user experience research and design within it, is at best elusive. This workshop aims at bringing together experts and researchers in User Experience and related disciplines for a hands-on discussion of questions, insights, and approaches in designing for a sustainable future.
