Service Design Day 2019

We would like to invite all organisations, service designers professionals, students and enthusiasts to join us in celebration of Service Design Day. Do good - give back!

This year is all about giving back to the community - block your calendars on May 31 and/or June 1 and use your service design skills for a greater good! Share your contribution via social media using #SDDay19 and #ServiceDesignDay.

On SDD we want to work together and show the power of service design - let’s demonstrate the true potential of our network.

We are excited to see how our service design community will join the SDD celebration in their own unique way with service design talks, events and activities.

Do good - give back!
