External website

This small, interactive, and cross-disciplinary gathering offers an excellent opportunity to reimagine participatory approaches in ageing research and to grow the AgeNet community.

This two-day, hands-on workshop is designed for researchers and practitioners working in ageing studies who want to engage with participatory approaches. With an interdisciplinary team of experts, we will engage in exploratory exercises and practical skill-building in:

– Co-designing and shared decision-making with older adults and people with special needs
– Using audiovisual, creative, and multisensory methods
– Sharing experiences and refining methods together

This is a unique opportunity to generate and exchange ideas, test practical tools, and collaborate in a small, focused setting (max. 20 participants).
