Of course, there is also plenty of room for the virtual programme. As a committee member of Dutch Design Awards, Jeroen will also give a daily wake-up call to the DDA winner of the previous day.

In the opening speech of the Embassy of Health, Paulien Melis talks to philosopher Henk Oosterling and designers Frank Kolkman and Mario de Zeeuw about the future of healthcare.

Class of 2020: St. Joost

DDW invited all Dutch design schools to put together an exhibition on the theme of The New Intimacy. Each school approached this in its own way.

Each school has its own emphasis, its own signature, and that is reflected in the exhibition. When the physical DDW stopped, five of the participating schools decided to show their physical installation in the schools.

A broad range of experts will participate in this dialogue, amongst others: change expert Marguerithe de Man (SIOO), OpenEmbassy founder Renée Frissen, psychologist Eefje Cobussen and public administrator Andrea Frankowski (NSOB). Daniëlle Arets will moderate the dialogue.
