ELIMINATE LONELINESS

The “Eliminate Loneliness” competition provides you a public platform to tackle the issue of loneliness and isolation in society through design. We challenge you to set your imagination alight, and consider the systems, spaces, and interactions that could generate meaningfulness and connection in today’s world.

Our aim is to collect design ideas geared towards tackling loneliness. Whether this be on the individual or collective, micro or macro, digital or tangible, product or space, is entirely up to you. We ask you to question the fundemental causes of loneliness, their flows, conditions, and effects. Following the ethos of Bubble, we then ask you to operate across multiple spheres, reaching beyond convention to tackle the issue of loneliness through a creative, design-led solution.

The scale, location, and parameters are entirely your decision. Whatever your response, we are eager to receive ideas that encourage connection, co-operation, and engagement.

Let your ideas be smart, bold, and beautiful. Be provocative. Design the world as you believe it should be.

The “Eliminate Loneliness” competition is open to all people who believe in generating design-led solutions to systemic societal issues. There are no barriers on age, qualifications, profession, or location. Submissions may be undertaken individually, or within a group, with a maximum of 4 participants per group.
