Fantastic news that we have been funded to use design-led research and practices to support health services to realise net zero goals! xitter.cf/dundeeuni/status/16975… Providing critical health services + Road to net zero = Net Positive?
How do we transform the health ecosystem via design-led innovation and contribute to the UK’s net zero and sustainability targets? Researchers in @DJCAD and partners @UniStrathclyde have been awarded £4.6m for a new project to answer that question: buff.ly/3QZxfVp

S.Korea doing very well with contact tracing and testing capacity and still see a new outbreak after easing lockdown. We just restarted the first and is still low with the second and now want to ease lockdown - I do worry. Glad Scotland is taking a different approach.

Religious objects in the 21C? xitter.cf/DJCAD/status/103292811…
An important part of Christian religious practice is going to church on a Sunday, but what if you can't attend regularly? Product Design student, Rowan Jack, has created Sacris, a set of objects that re-imagine how users can enhance religious practice at home. #djcadmastersshow
What a gutsy young person, wishing her well in all her endeavors!

Claire Craig provocative as ever - the multi-stage 100 yr life looks v different from the 3-stage life of years gone by & has implications 4 just about every facet of life - #d4h has a role in creating the context 4 health & well-being in this future #d4hsymp2019 @goodhealthdesn
Claires keynote today posed the question 'Design for Health:
 What does it mean in the context 
of the 100 year life?' ... We think the days discussions and activities at #d4hsymp2019 have started to interrogate this really well - thank you all for coming! @goodhealthdesn
