Dear list members,
Please be aware that the deadline for applications for the inaugural Wellbeing by Design conference has been extended to 11.59pm on 16th August 2015. We would greatly appreciate it if any list members could forward this on to their Masters, Doctoral and/or Post-Doctoral communities; please see the original call for participation below. We hope to see you in September!
The Institute of Design Innovation (InDI) at The Glasgow School of Art is pleased to announce the call for participation for the inaugural Wellbeing by Design Conference. This event will take place on the 7th, 8th and 9th September 2015, in the Highland and Islands Campus, Forres, Morayshire, with Professor Irene McAra-McWilliam delivering a keynote.
The conference will bring together practitioners and researchers from Masters, Doctoral and Post-doctoral communities whose shared interests and inquiries utilise design approaches to support communities to live well. Through a lively series of presentations, discussions and exhibitions, delegates will collaboratively explore and expand the evolving definitions of 'wellbeing'. At the same time, we will consider our individual and collective experiences and how reflective practice and reflexivity can support creativity, enhance collective knowledge, and be harnessed when exploring complex social challenges.
The aim of the Wellbeing by Design conference is to provide an intimate, supportive and informal space to discuss our successes, as well as the struggles inherent in research inquiry.
We invite applicants to complete the short conference application form by 16th August 2015. The application form can be found at http://www.gsa.ac.uk/life/gsa-events/events/w/wellbeing-by-design-2015-(1)/, alongside full details of the event.
If you have any questions please contact the team at: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>. We look forward to hearing from you!
