The Covid-19 pandemic has either shone a light on or further exacerbated crises around the world. These include: the poor health and unhealthy living situations of millions of people; the climate emergency; the deeply embedded social and economic inequalities in our societies; and the rapid transformations in work and the economy which will affect employment and livelihood opportunities for all.
The partnership between London Design Biennale and Chatham House is driven by a mutual commitment to fostering international dialogue towards seeking solutions to the world’s biggest global challenges, advancing London and the UK’s role as an international hub for innovation, new thinking and ideas exchange.
Chatham House would like to thank the Stavros Niarchos Foundation and the MAVA Foundation for supporting its partnership in Design in an Age of Crisis.
The exhibition is supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England.
