PhD course OZSW Design for Care
About the course
How does technology relate to care, and how can it support or undermine care practices? This one-week PhD course of the OZSW (Dutch Research School of Philosophy), organised by Prof. Ibo van de Poel and Dr. Steffen Steinert, explores the relation between technology and care.
The course covers the philosophy of designing for values, value conflicts and value change, and discusses case studies of design for care. Each day consists of about two lectures, combined with sessions in which participants work on a group blog post.
