Service Design Day 2022: Do Good - Give Back!

On June 1, the service design community will come together in recognition of Service Design Day, an occasion designed to acknowledge the power of service design, especially in these challenging times.

The need to reassess how we operate as a society has never been greater as the world continues to cope with the effects that the pandemic and ongoing wars have had on global communities, economies, and social networks.

As service designers, we recognise the importance of our work in these uncertain times, which is why we're excited to announce that this year's Service Design Day (June 1, 2022) will continue the "Do Good - Give Back" campaign.

With its launch, we invite all practitioners, students, agencies, and academics from all across the globe to join in and lend your support to those organisations most in need of your services.

Membership Special:

SERVICE DESIGN GLOBAL CONFERENCE 2022: SAVE 10% ON VIRTUAL TICKETS - ONLY ON JUNE 1st!

We are delighted to announce that registration for the Service Design Global Conference 2022 will open on Service Design Day, June 1! To mark this special day, we are offering a 10% discount on our virtual tickets. The discount will be available with a promo code which will be published on the conference website.

The conference will take place on October 13-14, in the amazing city of Copenhagen—and will also be virtual for our first fully hybrid event.

The theme for this year’s Service Design Global Conference is Courage to Design for Good. The conference, in partnership with the SDN Danish Chapter and the Danish Design Center, will focus on how we as the service design community establish the courage to set a different agenda both in the products and services we design and in our communities and organisations.

The world faces imminent and obvious challenges, both socially and environmentally. Tough decisions lie ahead for everybody, the service design community included. We need courage to push away from current trajectories, shaping a better tomorrow. A tomorrow that is more regenerative, more just, more resilient, more thriving—more good.

We look forward to seeing you in October!
