The symposium will be organised around six key themes. Each theme will have a keynote led by an invited speaker reflecting upon an influential piece of work that has impacted the design and research communities.
Upon submission of a paper, you will be asked to recommend which theme your work most aligns with.
Below are the six themes, and the papers that we as a committee identified as having a profound impact on our community.
