CIRCONFERENZE2030

Project
Circonferenze2030, format and educational design project, is a cycle of eight remote conferences (open in streaming to the public) organized with AIAP, a reference association in the sector, which hosted great masters of Italian graphic design as well as the latest generation of designers. Each meeting was the subject of an in-person workshop, to generate by the students a series of handbills dedicated to the 5Ps of the UN Agenda 2030 (People, Peace, Prosperity, Partnership, Planet). These projects were collectively presented to citizens to build a possible glossary of signs to communicate a fair and sustainable future.

Innovative and inclusive teaching models
The project aims to sensitize students to the varied potential of the social role of design in a strong interaction between profession and teaching, classroom in the presence and remotely, historical teachings and innovative practices, strategic objectives and tactical solutions.

Context
The UN 2030 agenda proposes seventeen goals and five keywords for the sustainable development of humanity itself, delivered to a climate of continuous crisis. Design has repeatedly represented the idea of ​​designing a sustainable world for most people, not only through manifestos of intent but also through a daily practice of activities on people and territories. The theme of social responsibility evoked by Albe Steiner in the 1940s forces communication design to reflect in broad terms on social, environmental and economic sustainability.

Targets
Students must develop a basic awareness of the fundamental role that communication design can play in proposing and supporting issues of social responsibility also applied to the commodity market. This theme should be considered a characterizing element of an Italian vision of design, in its connection to the local history of graphic design.
