BUILD CARE: New project within the Horizon2020 European joint Programme on Rare diseases

BUILD CARE: New project within the Horizon2020 European joint Programme on Rare diseases

in cooperation with TU Wien (AT), TU Dresden (DE), and KUV Leuven (BE)

Childhood stroke alters the life of children and their families as care continues for many years after stroke onset. We aim to, for the first time, investigate the role of the built environment in the everyday life of children and families affected by this rare disease. We will examine both the informal (i.e. home, neighbourhood, school) and formal (i.e. hospital, rehabilitation clinic, outpatient clinic) care environments. Children and their families, healthcare professionals, and design practitioners will be involved in the project through individual and focus group interviews (in Austria, Belgium and Germany), participatory methods attuned specifically to involve children, floor plan analysis of healthcare facilities and a broadly distributed survey.
