ABSTRACT
This paper critically looks at the role of people with dementia (and their network) when involved in a participatory design (PD) process and the role of designers when involving a person with dementia (and their network). Two participatory projects (ATOM and Dementia Lab) were analyzed and challenges in doing PD together with people with dementia are defined.

Empathy, participatory design and people with dementia
CHI '12: Proceedings of the SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsWe describe the development, application and evaluation of a design method tailored for working with people with mild to moderate dementia. Our experiences with the approach highlighted areas where designers and participants held radically different ...
Lessons learned from participatory design with and for people with dementia
MobileHCI '13: Proceedings of the 15th international conference on Human-computer interaction with mobile devices and servicesIn this paper we describe challenges and lessons learned from developing a mobile touch screen based assistive tool for people with dementia. We focus not on features of the tool but the general participatory design process that was applied. Insights ...
The role of design fiction in participatory design processes
NordiCHI '18: Proceedings of the 10th Nordic Conference on Human-Computer InteractionParticipatory design is in essence very malleable as any design technique could lend itself to it, as long as users and stakeholders are involved. Design fictions however, have more often been used as either a vehicle for critical designs, or as a sheer ...
