Without an association to represent designers and offer them tools and resources to grow, designers continue to be an unheard voice. This workshop seeks to establish the groundwork for an association of designers in Jordan – one that helps advance design as a profession, provides tools and resources to designers country-wide, and establishes design as a key force in society.
