Around 25 students from Danish social and health care schools took part in the Co-Creation Conference, gaining new tools for their professional toolkit.
The Co-Creation Conference was held on Thursday 6 March as part of Health & Rehab 2025. The aim was to create a space where students could work across professions and disciplines in connection with the use of assistive technologies.
The students were divided into interdisciplinary groups and presented with realistic scenarios. They were sent out among the trade fair's exhibitors to find solutions and assess how assistive products and assistive technology could be used and adapted to specific citizen cases.
The conference underscored the importance of involving future professionals in the development of tomorrow's assistive technology solutions — because the people who will be working with the products should also help to shape them.
