Organization

The MinD project has brought together internationally recognized leaders from 18 organisations in 8 countries to share and exploit their diverse knowledge, expertise and skills across design and dementia care. The goal was to share, advance and disseminate new knowledge of designing with and for people with dementia to improve their quality of life and dementia care more broadly.  Insights are made available for use by other researchers, policy providers, care professionals and end-users in academic, non-academic and professional environments to enhance and strengthen European design research as well as EU-based healthcare.
