DESIGN FOR A
BETTER WORLD

SHAPING THE FUTURE

WHERE INNOVATION SERVES HUMANITY

Don Norman Design Award (DNDA) is a global platform for early-career practitioners and educational organizations to showcase projects that impact society and then, to host an international summit for all groups that are working to benefit society through Humanity-Centered Design. What kinds of projects? See the United Nations’ list of 17 Sustainable Development Goals at https://sdgs.un.org/ (and read deeply into the numerous specialized websites branching off from that site). The summit allows everyone to share their knowledge, their lessons learned from both failures and successes, and to provide guidance and a platform for sharing.

Our mission is to champion humanity-centered design, emphasizing the rights and well-being of all people and the shared ecosystem we call “the earth.”

Dive into a world where design transcends aesthetics and technology, becoming a tool for societal enhancement.
