It's a Wild Life! That's the brief for PIDA 2022 - packaging design inspired by nature. Some 350 design students from seven countries will participate, showing packaging design projects with a personal and innovative interpretation of the brief.

Please find the dates for the different events below and register here. "On launching PIDA, we wanted to rock the boat and challenge conventions.
