The No Waste Challenge presented by What Design Can Do and the IKEA Foundation is now open for submissions! This global design competition focuses on addressing the enormous impact of waste and consumerism on climate change. We are looking for radical new ideas and design-driven solutions to reduce waste and rethink our entire consumption and production cycle.
Submit your proposals by 20 April 2021 and join us in accelerating the transition towards a just and circular society. To get started, learn more about the scope of the challenge, or check out the three design briefs available to participants.
Proposals should be exciting, feasible, potentially scalable, and respond to at least one of three global design briefs as presented by WDCD.
To take different perspectives into account, WDCD conducted research with the help of partners in six major cities: Amsterdam, Delhi, Mexico City, Nairobi, São Paulo & Rio de Janeiro and Tokyo. In each of these cities WDCD have developed a localised challenge track to guide participants from the region.
