Design In An Age of Crisis is a new mini-series on the Undercurrents podcast feed.

On 22 July 2020, London Design Biennale and Chatham House launched an open call inviting radical design solutions from the world’s design community, the public and young people. The open call hopes to harness the creativity that comes from crisis. In this episode, Sir John Sorrell and Rose Abdollahzadeh explain the role design can play in solving the challenges facing our world as a part of the launch of our international call for radical design solutions.

Design In An Age Of Crisis is a global open call from Chatham House and London Design Biennale. The open call is looking for radical and rapid responses, in any format, to problems facing humanity across four briefs: Health, Environment, Work and Society. Read the briefs and submit your radical design thinking by 31 August 2020.
