The discussion about sustainability has been in full swing for quite awhile. How do we move past talk and towards action? Join together with designers throughout the city to develop and begin exploring an action plan. Start responding to the questions raised around the responsibilities of designers in society. University of the Arts Industrial Design and Bresslergroup invite you to join the conversation during DesignPhiladelphia 2010.

The Designers Accord is a global coalition of designers, educators, and business leaders working together to create positive environmental and social impact. This town hall meeting is your chance to join fellow Seattle designers who care deeply about these issues, and share in the discussion of how we can make designing in sustainable ways a reality in our region.
