Introduction

The conference is being produced in combination with Shanghai World EXPO2010 and Shanghai Biennale.

It will explore where and how young generation of designers can, through their talents and responsibility, improve our environment and life in a creative way.

The missions and visions of design education, design research and practice for young creators, together with the economic, political and social impact will also be discussed during the conference.

About Cumulus

The University of Art and Design in Helsinki (TAIK) and the Royal College of Art in London, in co-operation with Danmarks Designskole, Gerrit Rietvelt Academy, Universität Gesamthochschule Essen and Hochschule für Angewandte Kunst in Wien initiated the Cumulus Network in 1990.
They all had a common desire to enhance the quality of education through co-operation, student and teacher exchange within the European Union Erasmus programme. The Network was transferred to Cumulus Association in 2001.
