Call for Workshop Participation: CYP MOOD
When a child is diagnosed with a serious, rare musculoskeletal disorder, it’s a reality that can be hard to fathom for the child, the parents, and even the healthcare providers. The pain, disability, and the need for constant healthcare activities disrupt the child’s normal life, making simple activities like going to school or pursuing hobbies a struggle. The Research Group Design for Health in coordination with Sunnaas and Norsk MO-og Olliersforening is inviting children with Multiple Osteochondromas and Olliers disease (MOOD) and their parents for series of workshops in 2025 to explore together possible digital solutions for home support.
What is it? 2,5 hours workshop where in an open atmosphere we discuss the common challenges and needs of the children and their parents, we challenge existing practices in coping with MOOD at home and propose possible smart digital solutions that can support children, parents but also health personnel involved in the recovery process.
How many? There will be around 5 workshops but you can choose on which you want to participate. Every workshop will have 5-6 participants + a research team
Why doing this? Workshops are space to openly discuss practical challenges and propose new ideas on future technologies to support patients and their parents in every day routines
