Medical Delta's Gezondheid van Jezelf? / Your Own Health? is a transdisciplinary project in which we explore the meaning of health ownership and apply it in design projects. The consortium consists of universities, universities of applied sciences, hospitals, and designers.
During the morning session, we will host an interactive consortium event on health ownership. The programme will include:
- Exploring the theory. What does health ownership mean, and when is it useful? To facilitate this discussion, we will use the definition from our position paper, speculative scenarios, and a visual discussion map of the concept.
- Presentations and discussions of demonstrator projects. Eight demonstrator projects exploring this concept are now underway. Examples include a game that helps children build digital resilience; a rollator that supports and communicates autonomy; research into the perceived scope for ownership among people with cardiac implants; the relationship between ownership of financial and physical health; ownership of the future of care. The researchers will be present to give short pitches and take part in discussions.
- A vision for the future. Together with the audience, we will develop a vision for the remaining two years of the project. W
