What is the next Design Challenge for the Arab world? | |
Moutamarat's first annual International Design Forum is due to take place in Dubai on 27 - 29 May 2007. As the first global design celebration of its kind to emerge from the Arab World, the IDF is set to seize headlines and imaginations across the world. Read more about International Design Initiative (IDI). Design is a powerful strategic tool that helps companies to stay ahead of the curve. Organizations in all spheres must strive to improve their creative capabilities if they are to remain competitive. Design is a creative and interactive process that draws from our traditions, roots, identity and culture. It creates a bridge between past, present and future, as well as promoting cultural understanding across borders. Moutamarat's International Design Initiative (IDI) is a high-profile forum for design experts from around the world to meet, exchange knowledge and raise awareness on design-related issues. In this way, participants will contribute to a better understanding of the role of creativity and design in business and socio-political contexts.

Apply now for an evening full of ideas for Lebanon and Beirut [register quickly (info [at] pearl-foundation [dot] nl) before 23 February, there are only 20 places left]. During this evening we will look beyond the devastations of the war in Lebanon last summer. Moderator Chris Keulemans, guest speaker Abdelkader Benali and several Lebanese guests are pleased to take you along a kaleidoscope of images and stories [click here for the full program]. During the evening, by way of an auction, several projects will be presented to you by the Lebanese initiators and their Dutch partners Archis, Partizan Publik and Pearl. The projects reinforce the public domain, stimulate dialogue and generate new approaches to complex urban developmental and social issues. In order to realise the projects it is essential that independent parties support them. On the Archis Ubuilt website you can find an extensive summary of the various initiatives. We hope one of the projects can count on your support. |
