The Design Research Institute invites you to contribute your creative thinking to the urgent and topical issue of bushfire events.
The 2009 Design Challenge brings together researchers and specialists across a broad range of diverse sectors to generate innovative trans-disciplinary design proposals in response to:
- Fire prevention and planning
- Emergency response and mitigation of fire impact
- Post-fire regeneration
Design teams will collaborate to develop proposals for presentation at the State of Design Festival 2009 Design Challenge Pitch in July. Finalists further develop their ideas to a second stage for presentation/exhibition in November, with one team selected to receive the RMIT Design Research Institute Challenge Award and funding for the next stage of research and development in 2010.
The Design Research Institute sees this as a major opportunity to spark new working relationships between research, industry and community.
