Designing Compassionate Technology for sustainable Mental Health Care
The interdisciplinary research project 'Designing compassionate technology with high societal readiness levels for mental healthcare' is a collaboration between 4 research groups at the University of Twente (Psychology, Health and Technology; Interaction Design; Philosophy and Human Media Interaction), Dimence and Minddistrict. In this project we will find new ways to design and develop with a value that is central to mental healthcare: Compassion. Instead of pushing new technology into healthcare, can we design technology starting from human values? Such compassionate technology should be able to deliver on the promise that technology can improve quality and access to mental healthcare.
