Five years after its first engagement with the design industry the World Bank Group’s Connect4Climate global partnership program returns to Milan Design Week 2018 to highlight positive solutions.
Carlo Ratti, Professor of Urban Technologies and Planning, Director, SENSEable City Lab Giulia Braga, Connect4Climate's Program ManagerAbout Design4Climate Action:
Design underlines every physical object we know. As the world walks towards a new era of eco-friendliness, low-carbon, and sustainability, the “Design4Climate Action” weeklong series of events will engage diverse audiences to embrace climate-driven, sustainable design. Sustainable design is climate-smart, environmentally-friendly and socially responsible, often achieved through a circular-economy mindset that thrives on renewable resources, efficient construction, reduced waste, and healthy and productive environments.
On the occasion of the Milan Design Week 2018, from Tuesday 17th to Sunday 22nd April, Connect4Climate, the international program of the World Bank dedicated to communication on climate change, and LifeGate, the Italian media network promoting sustainability, partner with Material ConneXion Italia Salone del Mobile Milan, TVN Media Group and IULM University, to present the Design4Climate Action initiative.
