The Circular Design in Action: Practices and Research conference - organized by Department of Architecture and Design of University of Genova - invites scholars, researchers, designers, and practitioners to share their insights and innovative approaches in circular design. This event is part of the CiD Project – Circular Design for Bio-based Innovation towards Climate-Neutral Cities, an initiative fostering sustainable solutions in architecture, product design, and urban transformation. 

In an era of pressing environmental challenges, design plays a fundamental role in shaping a sustainable future. The conference will explore circular economy principles, bio-based materials, and innovative design methodologies that drive the transition toward carbon-neutral cities. Participants will have the opportunity to showcase research, methodologies, and practical applications that redefine how materials, products, and built environments are designed, produced, and regenerated, within two tracks:
+ Track 1: Design for change
+ Track 2: Circular Cities
