Emerging Technologies for a Good Old Age-Symposium and Workshop
August 19, 2020
5:00pm-7:00pm
Format: Virtual
Host: Luddy School of Informatics, Computing, and Engineering, IU Bloomington
This project builds relationships with community members and organizations to define relevant questions and collaboratively create solutions that combine emerging technology and local institutions and practices of care.
This virtual co-designed workshop engages in collaboration between university researchers and the local community on healthcare and emerging technology. These are concerns that have become particularly salient due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In particular, the symposium will distill singular elements and activities seen in practices of care, and articulate issues and challenges associated with the creation and sustainability of care technology that may hold potential for the development of technological complements.
This will help IU build future relationships and partnerships in the community that will facilitate further funding and the co-design of new care-related technologies.
