Projects

We are launching a clear platform that groups at least 80 accessible, reliable and privacy-safe apps around wellbeing and mental health.

More and more apps are being launched in welfare work, but do different audiences and stakeholders consider the same criteria important for using an app for a long time?

Within welfare and health care, there is increasing use of online help applications, such as image calling. Implementing them is no easy task. This project helps organisations embed imagery in a sustainable way.

Research on increasing the accessibility of Flemish PCSWs through online communication.

How can online diaries be prepared in terms of content so that they can be used in a high-quality way as an instrument in blended assistance?

A substantiated working method for the use of social network sites in welfare work does not yet exist. It offers opportunities to communicate with target groups and professionals, but these have not yet been properly mapped out.

In this project, we explore the needs in the field of well-being and mental health care regarding AI. Together with them, we aim to elevate the accessibility, quality, and efficiency of support and services to a higher level in a secure manner, using artificial intelligence (AI).

Social workers and healthcare providers mainly communicate face-to-face. However, in our digital society, health and welfare services should not ignore online opportunities. On the contrary, online tools such as chatting, e-mailing, online diaries, self-tests, ... enhance help and care.

About half of the Flemish population is an active and voluntary member of an association, and very many people are also involved in some form of voluntary work.
