Hello!

New solutions could help people with disabilities to carry out activities of daily living and participate in social activities. Our aim is to identify your needs and collaborate with engineers to develop all types of technical solutions, to help children and youth with disabilities in their daily lives.

#Who are we?
We are the organizers of the European Academy of Childhood Disability 2019 about "Innovation for Participation", a team of healthcare workers from the Society for Studies & Research on Childhood Disabilities (Société Francophone d'Etudes et de Recherche sur les Handicaps de l'Enfance, SFERHE) working in collaboration with engineers from the EPF, a French Engineering School (l'Ecole Polytechnique Féminine).

#What exactly do we want?
We need you to tell us your needs so we can develop technical solutions to help children and youth with disabilities. We would like young people with disability, or their carers or healthcare professionals (like parents, teachers or therapists), to complete this brief questionnaire to help us identify the daily life-needs of children, teenagers and young adults with disabilities.

#What will we do with this information?
We will use the information you give us to work with engineers to find innovative technical solutions that meet the needs you have identified.

#How can you help?
Please complete this questionnaire - it should take about 5 minutes. Please provide explanations or detailed answers in the spaces provided, this will help us to fully understand the needs and to find the best solutions.

Thank you for your participation!
