The Ulm Foundation in Germany is sponsoring an interesting competition called, “Designing Politics – the Politics of Design” for which the deadline is 10th May 2008 and entries can be from anywhere in the world. The call for entries says that, “Ulm has set itself the task of conducting a discourse on the social responsibility of designers to promote the democratic quality of design.” It looks as though they’ve got 50,000 euros to allocate. Applications are by online form only.
