Recovery and Renewal: Co-design in Health
As a part of the Health Design Lab, Emily Carr University, In collaboration with OCADU, University of Alberta, Sheffield Hellam University, University of Washington and Saint Elizabeth Health.
Recovery and Renewal: Co-design in Health
This project seeks to learn from health designers internationally about how co-design practices in health evolved, pivoted, and changed during the pandemic. So that we can learn from these experiences to inform the future of co-design practices.
Utilizing the realist review methodology, the data on Co-design beyond the Pandemic is systematically coded and synthesized. It is then categorized to demonstrate the key interconnections among seven Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) principles—accessibility, safety, capacity building and empowerment, timeline and pace, democratic practices, creativity and making, and context-based and community-specific knowledge.

Key Skills
Secondary Research
We did a systematic literature review.
Facilitation- Workshops, Webinars and Interviews
Facilitating workshops, webinars and interviews as a means of information gathering and community building, we prioritized holding space and cultivating a safe environment for open dialogues focused on improvement. We employed participatory and empathetic design methods to engage with a diverse and geographically dispersed group.
