Plural Futures III: Implications<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Renato Bispo\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

SEMINAR<\/strong>
MAY 18TH OF 2026, 3PM
ATRIUM BETWEEN BUILDINGS EP1 – ESAD.CR <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The Seminar Course of the Industrial Design Bachelor at ESAD.CR returns with a new cycle under the theme Plural Futures III: Implications, proposing a critical immersion into the contemporary conditions of design and the responsibilities that emerge from it.
Starting from the figure of the designer as both a critical subject and a producer of economic, material, and cultural value, this seminar positions itself as a transitional space between academic training and professional practice, questioning how designers act, decide, and position themselves within an
unstable, unequal, and technologically accelerated world.
Organised in an intensive format, with public forums featuring invited guests, the programme brings together different perspectives to discuss what design does and what it implies – across production systems, social structures, economies, and the ways of life it helps to shape.
This cycle proposes to think of design as a situated, political, and ethical practice, capable of anticipating scenarios, challenging established models, and actively participating in the construction of more conscious, sustainable, and plural futures. Between products, brands, systems, and narratives, the seminar establishes itself as a space for listening, confrontation, and critical positioning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This seminar will feature a presentation on the projects developed by the Design and Arts Research Laboratory (LiDA), the research unit of ESAD.CR whose mission is to develop research in the fields of Design, Arts and Culture oriented towards societal transitions, promoting the potential for change and encouraging reflection on future ecologies.
LiDA develops activities in applied research, experimental development and knowledge transfer, in cooperation with companies, public entities, and national and international research institutions. It seeks to contribute to a greater public awareness of the role of Design, Arts and Culture as forms of knowledge and sociocultural intervention.
LiDA includes 38 integrated PhD members within a community of 95 people, including collaborators, research fellows and doctoral students. It brings together a multifaceted team with expertise in product design, spatial design, communication design, interaction design, eco-design, participatory design, multimedia, visual arts, audiovisual practices and cultural programming, among other areas.
These competencies enable the development of multidisciplinary projects focused on the transformations of the contemporary world, supporting all stages of creation and development while reinforcing the social, economic and ecological impact of research.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"May 18th, 2026","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":19112,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":true,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"multilingual_post_translation":"{\"pt-PT\":{\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr\/2026\/05\/12\/futuros-plurais-iii-renato-bispo\/\",\"postID\":null,\"postTitle\":\"\",\"siteID\":17,\"customURL\":true,\"languageInfo\":{\"multilingual_site_api_url\":\"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr\/wp-json\/\",\"name\":\"Portugu\u00eas\",\"locale\":\"pt_PT\"}}}","custompostfields_homepage-title":"","custompostfields_banners":"","custompostfields_event-date":"2026-05-12","custompostfields_event-end-date":"2026-05-12","custompostfields_front-page-thumbnail":"","custompostfields_front-page-gallery-thumbnails":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19109"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19109"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19109\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":19114,"href":"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19109\/revisions\/19114"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19112"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19109"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=19109"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ipleiria.pt\/esadcr-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=19109"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
