Interdisciplinary Innovations for Population Ageing (Second Run)

Abstract

Population ageing is a global phenomenon profoundly affecting the well-being of communities. Disciplines such as Social Sciences, Design, and Engineering offer unique, insightful innovations for ageing societies. Along with providing solutions catering to their professional niche, these disciplines achieve creative and practical innovations through interdisciplinary collaboration. This course intends to explore and examine the process of incubating innovations in these three disciplines and help the learners to appreciate the synergy created when working toward innovations by adopting an interdisciplinary approach.
