Research

My research focuses on promoting healthy lifestyles behaviors among individuals with intellectual disabilities through inclusive research.

In our research project, we will develop, evaluate, and implement a digital intervention that can promote healthy lifestyle behaviors among people with intellectual disabilities (ID) through inclusive research (Co-Design).

Inclusive research means that people affected by the research are involved in various ways in all parts of the research. This type of research contributes to increasing the quality and the implementation possibilities of the research, as well as leading to interventions based on true needs. In our project, we work in workshops together with people with ID, support persons, patient organizations, professionals, IT developers, and researchers.
