The RSD7 conference (www.rsd7.org) constitutes the 7th annual Symposium of the Systemic Design Research Network (SDRN), a cooperative educational group founded in 2012. The interdisciplinary conference aims to represent the state of the art of systems thinking application in design towards sustainability and stimulate an international debate among academics and professionals on the topic "Challenging complexity by Systemic Design towards sustainability". The theme encompasses many areas of Systemic Design, exploring the opportunities for systems and design thinking in different interdisciplinary and complementary domains. We welcome works addressing this wide theme from different perspectives, fostering special reflections on the relevant topics proposed below.
Submission Process
We ask everyone who wishes to present their work at RSD7 to submit a long abstract of maximum 1000 words (title, keywords and references excluded).
Your abstract will undergo a peer review process by independent referees. We will notify the selected abstracts to be presented at RSD7 within the deadline present on the home page.
If you have received an email telling you that your abstract has been selected, you should register for the conference and present your work during the RSD7 parallel sessions.
After the conference, you will be asked to prepare a working paper that will be included in the RSD7 proceedings: you may consider the feedbacks gathered during your presentation discussion.
All the working papers will be included in the official RSD7 proceedings, published in Open Access by the Politecnico di Torino. Then, the best papers will be selected to be fully developed and peer reviewed for the publication in external scientific journals.
