The Role of Burnout in Design: Redefining what it means to be resilient in the next era of work
 
Designing for health and sustainability also means being sustainable about our own health. Too often, our health takes a back seat. This session will explore the theme of mental health and well-being, with a specific focus on the issue of how to design ‘out' burnout in our spaces. We will examine this topic as both a design challenge for the industry, as well as a personal challenge for all.
