The 7th International Conference for Design Education Researchers, LearnXDesign 2023, was convened as a call for papers and publication of proceedings. This allowed an extended review and development period for authors to develop submissions and the process ran from January to December 2023. 236 authors from 32 countries contributed 106 final submissions. Peer review was double blind by a 135 member international scientific panel. Each submission was also reviewed by the Academic Committee, comprising the seven members of the EdSIG Convening Group. Submission types included: research papers, case studies, conversations, and visual papers. In addition, this year saw the introduction of conversations, letters and statements of pedagogy. The overall acceptance rate across all submission categories was 60%. The LearnXDesign conferences are organised by the DRS Special Interest Group in Design Education (EdSIG).
