CFP: International Design Conference on Sustainable and Innovative Design PAPERS DUE 5/11/2021

The International Design Conference on Sustainable and Innovative Design is a multi-disciplinary, peer-reviewed international conference on Sustainability concepts in several design fields to adapt to the ‘New normal’ in the wake of the COVID 19 pandemic. The conference will focus on design processes & concepts, new advances in design theory and research methods, impactful societal design, design & materials for sustainability and innovative technologies.

The conference will provide a forum to:

exchange and share the latest design information and knowledge

disseminate high-quality research and design approaches

present new developments in the field.

IDCSID 2022 will be organized in three main components:

1. Displays-Posters/Prototypes/Products

Designers, Participating Design Schools, enterprises and research organizations will be able to put up displays describing their works and projects and to distribute the relevant information to the participants. The displays will be the mainstay of the event which will enable one-to-one contacts between the participants.

2 Presentations- Face to Face

A set of presentations will be organized, covering innovative design thinking and approaches in reviewing, developing and adopting new methodologies with multi dimensions to address sustainable issues in a pandemic situation called ‘new normal’. The presentations will be led by plenary keynote speakers.

3 Virtual Presentations on conference Website

The global crisis caused by COVID-19 and variants has impeded the freedoms of movement in a globalised world. IDCSID 2022 is proposing the virtual option to provide academics and practitioners with the online platform to ensure that their research and design work is shared, published and engaged with at this difficult time.

The conference main and sub-topics:

1. Fashion, Textile and Accessories

New Trends in Fashion- COVID-19 Smart & Intelligent Textiles Nanotechnology & Fashion Fashion & Comfort

Important Dates/Deadlines

Submission of Extended Abstract: 5th November 2021

Notification of acceptance of abstract: 5th December 2021

Full papers for inclusion in the conference proceeding (after conference):
18th May 2022

Papers presented at the conference will be considered for publication in the Springer Series (any journals to be considered for accepted papers).

Profile of Participants

Participants/delegates attending IDCSID 2022 will come from a cross-sectoral range of areas.

They are:

· Academics, designers, researchers and practitioners, strategic decision-makers, managers, entrepreneurs, design and engineering professionals, regional or international design Schools

and Universities.

· Design and engineering students and trainees;

· Other people interested in the field.

This wide range of participants will help to outline the need for integrated approaches and address the forces of globalization towards the ‘new normal’ situation hence contributing to the enforcement of sustainable design practices in line with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
