Spatialising Degrowth International Symposium

„Global society has not yet understood the distinction between physical expansion and qualitative development. It has passed the stage where more physical expansion is desirable. No widely-shared global goal is now served by having more people or material goods. Now it is important to learn how to advance the development of our species - achieving equity, peace, psychological balance, physical health, environmental quality.” (Dennis Meadows, co-author of Limits to Growth)

VR és interaktív digitális eszközök az egészségügyi és pszichológiai gyakorlatban

Az eseményen pszichológusok és terapeuták röviden bemutatják kapcsolódó tapasztalataikat, majd tematikus, kiscsoportos beszélgetésekre hívjuk a résztvevőket. A kiscsoportos beszélgetések fókuszában a VR-terápiák etikai, design- és hatásmérési kérdései állnak, például: Hogyan mérhető a VR-élmények hatása? Milyen etikai dilemmákat vet fel a virtuális tér a terápiában? Miként lehet a VR-t személyre szabni idős vagy sérülékeny csoportok számára?
