The transformative power of design

From man-made gems, healthy ageing and artificial intelligence to biomaterials and the climate crisis, the Festival of Futures at Lancaster University explored how design research can respond to an array of local and global challenges. Tune in to hear researchers from four design-research centres of excellence across the UK share their stories of collaboratively designing for a better tomorrow with partners from industry, health, private and public sectors.
