This is a selection of projects to celebrate ten years of meaningful co-design at the Digital Health & Care Innovation Centre (DHI).

We have chosen examples of lived experience engagements that informed concepts for innovating health and care across a range of diverse contexts and topics.

We are a multi-disciplinary team of Design Researchers and Creative Technologists based at The GSA’s Innovation School in Glasgow and Moray.

We work across urban and rural contexts – locally, nationally, and internationally.

Our participatory design approach to innovation is person-centred, not technology-driven, focusing on understanding the lived experience of people and their preferred future ways of living and working.

Participants with lived experience are supported to share their stories, challenges and ideas using bespoke methods and tools.

Through visualisation, collaborative making, prototyping, and simulation we enable new ways of collaborative working and the translation of insights into future health and care products, services, and systems.
