This book includes the text parts of design proposal presentations as well as academic pa- pers of the International MinD Conference held in Dresden, Germany, in September 2019. Academic papers are marked with the Bachelor’s hat icon ( ) and design proposals are marked with a pen ( ). The content of the special workshops held at the conference is not included in this volume. The proceedings reflect a broad engagement with the field from a diverse range of re- searchers and practitioners from the various design and health disciplines, including prod- uct and interior design, craft, information and communication technologies, architecture and the built environment, psychiatry, psychology, geriatrics and others. Together, the contributions offer an overview of how design – as a process and an outcome – can help to support people to live well with dementia as well as their relatives, carers and care professionals. We hope that these contributions also provide a better insight into how design and designers can be used and developed to do so. By offering these insights and enhanced understanding, we hope to provide a better basis for collaborations between people living with dementia or designing for and concerned with dementia care to contrib- ute to improving life for those living with dementia [... from the Editorial Notes] |
