Special Interest Groups (SIGs) address specific topics for a limited time. SIGs have to act in the interest of the Design Society as a whole and must follow a set of rules.
The third addition to our SIGs in 2024 is Artificial Intelligence X Design! The AIXD SIG aims to create a collaborative forum for studying how AI technologies can impact design practices and theory and how we can help design better AI solutions.
The second addition to our SIGs in 2024 is Design Justice & Ethics! The DJE SIG explores how design practices intersect with justice and ethics to address systemic inequalities, promote social responsibility, and foster inclusivity.
The latest addition to our Special Interest Groups (SIGs) is Design Research Quality! The DRQ SIG aims to enhance the quality of design research by celebrating the diversity of perspectives, methodologies, outputs, and impacts within the field.
The Design Society supports Special Interests Groups (SIGs). SIGs provide opportunities for DS members and non-members to network, share ideas, experience and knowledge, collaborate, learn and open new research topics.
Special Interest Groups (SIGs) may be established with approval of the Board of Management. SlGs shall be responsible for the organisation of events and activities within a particular area of interest to further the Society‘s aim and objectives. A SIG is managed by two or three leaders. Each SIG has an appropriate committee (steering committee) established in order to support the SIG Leaders in carrying out their tasks. The SIG leaders must be members of the Design Society.
SIGs welcome non DS members to participate in some of their activities to allow them to appreciate the benefits of being part of the DS community.
