This year, the central theme is ‘Designing for a Better World,’ highlighting the importance of integrating sustainability and accessibility into digital design. The focus is on improving the design of public spaces, city infrastructure (transport, urban architecture), materials, and civic participation for a more inclusive and sustainable future.
