The conference program, titled "P/REFERENCES OF DESIGN," will explore the most exciting questions and relevant methodologies of contemporary design culture. The program is based on nine topics:

Centres and Peripheries
Converging Bodies of Knowledge
Redefining Data Boundaries
Bridging Design and Economics
Speculative Perspectives
The Power of Immersion
The Future of Well-being
Taming Entropy: Systems Design for Climate and Change
Ways of Living Together

With an attendance of 300-500, the several-day conference includes cultural, professional, and community building events and activities, roundtable discussions, and workshops around a specific subject or narrative.

Traditionally, the host organisation can make a more in-depth introduction of itself, and so in spring 2024 MOME will be given the opportunity to present its professional ambitions and major accomplishments from recent years to the representatives of partner institutions and prominent members of the international community.
