The Ageing and Design program is expanding!

This year the department is working with a strategy where we further develop cooperation with scientists and companies outside the institution. Currently I am working myself with the development of practice-based innovation and innovation-procurement as an opportunity to develop elderly care at the municipal level and increase the participation of senior citizens in the development of the support and service required by modern ageing.
