Eray Sertac Ersayin
Industrial Designers Society of Turkey
I have been managing design initiatives for Turkey, these include various industries, NGOs, Societies, Local Municipalities and National Government projects. In the past 11 years, organized several international design events in Turkey such as Design Turkey, Design Evaluation Systems for Ministry of Trade and Turkish Exports Assembly. I have been deeply engaged in integrating designers with the government and industry. These collaborations bring awareness about SDGs in Turkey through responsible production and consumption in various sectors. I have been involved in different industries in Design and Management responsibilities where ideas are assessed through the results of product and
consumer experience and the returns of experiences from nearly +65 countries around the world. Design field has a very important role in the development of institutions, brands, cities and nations. There are approaches that can implement responsible production and responsible consumption criteria. We need to assess this power, which is very important to our planet. As an experienced Design professional, I can bring my 29 years of expertise of managing industries and influencing Government design initiatives to WDO and if elected as a Board Member I would work with the President and the board to support WDO objectives during this term.
