Design + Diversity Conference
August 5, 2021 @ 8:00 am - August 7, 2021 @ 5:00 pm
About this event
Join us online for the 5 year celebration of the Design + Diversity Conference— the conference which inspires, celebrates and promotes not only diversity in design, but the diversity of design.
Each year we focus on the themes of:
Using creative practice to address social ills and systems of oppression through Social Justice
Using creative craft to meet the needs of specific identities through Designing Diversity
Developing a collective acumen of Traditional Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
Additionally, this conference has created a platform for diverse speakers from around the country to present their work, challenge our assumptions and build our knowledge on a wide range of topics. This event provides a safe space for critical conversations among designers, innovators, and leaders. We welcome the perspective of diversity, equity, and inclusion professionals, designers, and all enthusiasts or allies.
