LabOurWard! – Innovating to save women’s and babies lives in low resource settings DOM-E5042 (5-10 cr)
Explore how the interplay of services, space and media can create better experiences for women, children and families, as well as an empowering work environment for health care providers.
Information design? Visualizations? Way- finding? Story telling? Spatial design? Materials and colors? Gadgets? Services?
The focus will be on resource low settings in Sub-Saharan Africa and South-East Asia.
Results will be exhibited and presented at the Women Deliver conference in Copenhagen during 16-19 May 2016 (see: http://wd2016.org) in the form of a “LabourWard prototype”
