Summit Design Education: Global Issues in Regional Context Focus Israel

What are the differences and similarities in design education today? What challenges do we face in terms of global issues and big transformations – and what does this mean in regional context?

We are interested in discussing those issues with both partners from Israel and from our network of European partners. Considering the common history, Israel and Germany are highly connected in many ways. The exchange between Israel and Germany in the field of Design is higher than ever.

Together with our partners from Israel, Bezalel, COMAS, HIT and Shenkar, we want to explore this broad topic and take a closer look to design education in Israel, current thematic emphasises, emerging curricular and didactic concepts to find similarities and differences in both countries.

We are looking forward to a 20 minute talk by each institution, in order to share experiences and ideas.
