Preliminary programme of RECOPE workshops
On Monday, 27 May, we will hold a stakeholder workshop with non-academic stakeholders.
During this first day, RECOPE will bring together local stakeholders from the care and technology sectors to gain an understanding of the current developments and experiences. Academic participants are welcome to also join on the first day.
On Tuesday, 28 May, we will hold an academic research seminar, based on this call for abstracts for oral presentations.
-
Keynote speech by Prof. Britt Östlund (Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan, Stockholm) with the following topic: While waiting for AI! What is new? What have we learnt? History of technology in care settings revisited.
-
Papers from different disciplinary backgrounds on socio-material perspectives that explore how digitalisation and technologisation affects ideals and practices of care of older persons, with a focus on care taking place in older people's homes. We aim to advance knowledge about the technologically reassembled home care practices in ongoing care crises, where ageing in place and active ageing policies increasingly rely on technologised futures.
