DesignMatters is an Erasmus+ project developed in partnership with Cumulus, with the goal of promoting inclusion and diversity in doctoral education in design, by developing shared methods and standards for PhD programs across Europe. <\/p>\n

Through fostering collaboration among academia, civil society, and local communities, the initiative seeks to bridge academic research with real-world needs. The event will feature four expert keynote speakers and a roundtable with civil society actors, as well as a presentation of the Erasmus+ project itself. <\/p>\n
