Research-Creation for Birth Environment Design Knowledge Mobilization

The project aims to start developing a creative, inclusive and operative resource facilitating birth environment knowledge transfer from researchers of diverse disciplines/perspectives to the design practitioner community, and the healthcare sector through a literature review and case study analysis.

The objective is reached by engaging a diverse group of experts and end-users through participatory workshops to co-design the first iteration of a Birth Environment Design Knowledge Mobilization platform.

The process goes through cycles of reflection and action and utilizes the rich knowledge base and personal experience of experts (from architecture, from midwifery, from health policy, from digital media, etc).
