ICoD Regional Meeting Europe (RM EURO 2026) Confessions of a Designer: Design, Decisions and Impact will take place in Sofia on 11 June 2026 and will be hosted in partnership with the European Design Festival.
The Regional Meeting will open with keynote reflections on this year’s theme, Confessions of a Designer: Design, Decisions and Impact, addressing the realities of decision-making in design amid geopolitical, economic and technological disruptions, including AI. Discussions will examine how design choices are shaped by tensions, uncertainties, instincts and trade-offs, and how our criteria evolve alongside changing knowledge, values and accountability.
Through shared confessions and dialogue, participants will explore how decisions are formed, who defines them, and how awareness or blind spots affect public life and tangible outcomes. A structured networking activity will provide space for exchange across the region.
The meeting will conclude with a participatory session mapping insights and identifying shared regional challenges within Balkan Europe, strengthening dialogue and common cause within ICoD’s global design network.
