2022- President of Vamlas Foundation (Charity Foundation for Children and Young Person with Disabilities)
I am interested in complex challenges such as population aging, well-being and digitalisation. I want to increase understanding and opportunities for citizens to live a good life and act in a meaningful way. That is why I promote the transdisciplinary development and participatory research of innovative solutions together with citizens, students, researchers and professionals, as well as municipalities.
Motto: The best things are done together
