Description
“The best way to predict the future is to design it”
Buckminster Fuller
The theme for the 2008 edition is the search for alternatives to the current dependence on non-renewable energy sources. In order to change the current human, political, strategic and environmental implications of present consumption rates, as well as to ensure greater social equality and sustainability, new goods and services with lower impacts should be proposed and implemented. Design can, and should, give an important contribution to this area, by proposing new approaches and solutions. This award is intended to distinguish innovative projects dealing with this concern.
Any design work on this issue, whether a vehicle, a public transport service, a cooking device or a lighting system, a water pump or any other practical or theoretical contribution, as well as a synopsis from an MsC or PhD dissertation, can be proposed.
