Research in design for the health emergency. Inclusive, personalized, and sustainable solutions for people wellness
| Resumo: | The paper explores the research line on One Health, an innovative concept that, according to the World Health Organization (WHO, 2016), refers to "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being." This definition fits within a paradigm that goes beyond the mere absence of disease, embracing the complexity of environmental, physical, and psychological aspects. The WHO has indeed established a significant link between the environment and human health by introducing the concept of "Eco-Health" (WHO, Regional Office for Europe, 2016). In this context, the research project "Smart&Safe2. Design for Inclusive Smart Protection Systems (S2PI)" is situated. This project won a competitive funding call from the Campania Region (2022- 2023) in response to the emergency related to the Covid-19 pandemic. One Health provides the reference framework for the project, which aims to analyze and address the issues arising from the prolonged use of personal protective equipment (PPE), particularly face masks, focusing on the dermatological effects associated with them. The primary goal is to promote prevention, protection, and care strategies at the social level, aiming to address the emerging problems during the pandemic period. |
