CONFERENCE: Florida. Winter 2020

The World Health Organization considers questions like the global increase in dementia as issues that can be tackled, in part, through design. The National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research underlines how environments can actively exclude whole sections of society by design itself. The World Institute of Psychology identifies multiple links between mood, behavior and the objects we interact with daily.
This conference and its publications are premised on the belief that health professionals, diverse user groups and psychologists need to collaborate more closely with the designers, architects and planners who create the products and spaces people need, whether that be: the streets of our cities, the interior environments of offices, hospitals and schools; or the products and furniture we employ for assistance or general use.
On that basis it brings together people from this diverse range of fields into open dialogue.
