Discover the future of co-design
From February 11th to 13th, 2026, you are welcome to celebrate ESC's fourth anniversary. This also marks the beginning of a new phase for the Systemic Co-design Expertise Network. During this three-day ESConference in and around Pakhuis de Zwijger in Amsterdam, designers, civil society organizations, and researchers will come together. Participants will share experiences and learn from practical examples, field trips, and reflections on impact in transition contexts, research, and education. The central question is what we have learned about Systemic Co-design and how we can apply these insights to the societal challenges of today and the future.
Learn about Systemic Co-design
After four years of collaboration, ESC reflects on the knowledge and creations gained. What can Systemic Co-design offer in addressing complex societal challenges? How can it be applied in sectors such as healthcare, social work, energy transition, and green cities? Expect a program full of inspiring encounters. Each day can be attended independently and offers keynotes, workshops, book presentations, and interactive sessions. An international group of designers, researchers, and social partners will share knowledge, methods, and stories of impact.
