Objectives & meeting agenda
HOST CITY
World Design Capital© 2020, Lille Metropole is hosting the WDC NETWORK OF CITIES MEETING this year.
OBJECTIVE
The 2020 edition of the WDC NETWORK OF CITIES MEETING has the following introductory framework: “How to collaborate and use design as a tool for motivating citizens, helping to build new economic models and drawing up effective public policies.”
WORKS
Using this question as a springboard, this will be an opportunity for former and future World Design Capitals to share and exchange ideas in three key areas, with a collective ambition :
> FOCUS 1 : management and enrichment of the legacy of previous editions of World Design Capital, to promote the sustainable development of regions and improve quality of life for citizens;
> FOCUS 2 : dealing with the Covid-19 crisis by following a design and innovation approach;
> FOCUS 3 : evaluation and reiteration of the role of design as an essential tool for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.
