UK – British designers have come together to address the lack of momentum and initiatives in tackling the climate crisis with a new industry-wide campaign entitled Design Declares.

Initiated by design and innovation consultancy Morrama and creative group Urge Collective, the movement also received support from the Design Council and other organisations, including ethical design practice Driftime and sustainable design studio Snook.

Design Declares urges designers from all disciplines to acknowledge the climate emergency and provides practical toolkits outlining actions, tools and insights to start implementing changes.

‘There is a wealth of information and resources out there; designers often don’t know where to start. We want to offer guidance, accessible tools, and frameworks for change that help designers build their knowledge and empower them further,’ explains Abb-d Taiyo, co-founder of Driftime.

Previous design responses to the climate crisis showed how designers are creatively using their platforms to advocate positive change. Design Declares is following in their footsteps, encouraging industry insiders to act as change-makers and to get ahead of government action with climate-forward practices.
