OneHealth Design Thinking (2022)

This research project was done in collaboration with BrabantAdvies. An advisory organization for the province of North Brabant. This project focuses on improving zoonotic literacy within the context of nature-inclusive farming. Zoonoses are diseases spread from animals to humans. The project researched how a multi-stakeholder design thinking session, including 4 exercises, can encompass a non-human perspective with the goal to increase zoonotic literacy. This is done by using the OneHealth framework known by stakeholders in this context.

I conducted extenisve scoping within the complex (wicked) challenge of zoonotic risk management. I facilitated a multi-stakeholder session with stakeholders from various fields. I navigated a complex (wicked) challenge by aiming for an accessible session using visualization, UX knowledge and design thinking methodology. I learned to create in-depth research insights individually and create a coherent paper. While managing both client as well as university needs.
