  • Innovative activities and practices in Information Design over the years
  • Revisions of qualitative research methodologies in Information Design
  • Timelines mapping the evolution of Information Design in both research and practice

  • Development of methodological frameworks and evaluation methodologies in the field
  • Challenges faced and future research agendas in Information Design 
  • Practitioner's point of view
  • Teaching and learning Information Design

We invite researchers to contribute their insights, experiences, and perspectives to this special issue, shaping the discourse on the past, present, and future of Information Design. Submissions undergo rigorous peer review and adhere to a double-blind review process.
