Empowering citizens in digital health data governance
As digital technologies in healthcare expand, critical discussions on protecting privacy, securing personal health data, and governing its use have gained prominence. Despite regulations such as the General Data Protection Regulation and the European Health Data Space, many citizens remain unaware of their data rights or how their data are used. This highlights the need to understand how citizens wish to participate and what meaningful participat…
Towards Caring Technologies in Older Adult Care Through the Co-Creation of an Ethical Process Guide
As populations age, the gap between care needs and available support systems is widening, leading to critical vulnerabilities in staffing, infrastructure, and funding. The need for accessible, human-centred, and ethically grounded care technologies is growing. However, the development of digital health tools often lacks inclusivity and practical guidance. Existing ethical frameworks tend to remain abstract, which limits their real-world applicati…
Understanding Health Perspectives and Values Among People Living in Socio-Economic Vulnerable Circumstances in Flanders
Background: Socio-economic status (SES) is a key health determinant affecting life expectancy, healthcare access, and chronic disease prevalence, yet the health values and needs of people living in socio-economic vulnerable circumstances are often overlooked in traditional health assessments—enforcing health inequities. Approach: This study aims to identify and understand the health perspectives, values, priorities and needs of people living in s…
A community engagement strategy for health promotion through co-created digital solutions, the Bibopp project
Historically, professionals developed strategies to promote health with little or no input from the targeted populations. Recently, community engagement is gaining importance as a strategy to work together to achieve positive health impact and outcomes. In this light, we developed the digital solution, BIBOPP. BIBOPP offers adults an evidence-based risk analysis for chronic diseases, allowing them to evaluate their health and lifestyle. Results c…
Digital solutions for disease prevention

Background: Our healthcare system is in transition towards a more personalized and preventive healthcar…
From smart to caring technologies – The development of a guideline for Caring Technology implementation in elderly care
As a shift from 'smart' to 'caring' technologies is needed, which puts the end-user's care needs at the forefront, we developed the Caring Technology guideline which is an added value for caring technology implementation in healthcare organisations. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the needs and expectations associated with the implementation of caring technologies in elderly care and use this information to inform the development of a…
Tailoring community preventive care to personal health needs
A digital platform with tools for health promotion was developed as a proof of concept in co-creation with all relevant stakeholders involved: citizens, caregivers, and local policy makers, aiming to optimize community preventive care. The platform, referred to as BIBOPP, was developed as a proof of concept focusing on prevention and health promotion for citizens, local policy makers but also for primary care givers wanting to offer personalized …
We Are
The We Are platform gives citizens control of their own health data and actively involves them in decisions about the platform that manages the data, thereby guaranteeing them that they can manage and share their data in a safe way as a leverage for personal wellbeing and the common good. Challenge: Data about citizens, consumers and patients is collected by the government in order to make policies, by companies to develop new products and for ma…
