ConnectUp: Citizen Science informed online platform to increase social connection, physical health, and mental wellbeing in people with disability and their carers
ConnectUp is three-year project that aims to enhance a co-designed online platform (ConnectUp), to foster social connections among people living with a disability and carers. The project is led by University of Melbourne along with key collaborating partners (Australian Citizen Science Association, Carers Australia and Carers WA and Ramsay Health Care).
Citizen Science in ConnectUp: The project will be recruiting citizens to provide feedback on specific stages of the ConnectUp project: (e.g., co-design stage: providing feedback on ConnectUp design features appeal and functionality; Implementation stage: informing the implementation of ConnectUp in WA; and Evaluation stage: providing feedback on the reach, adoption and impact of ConnectUp on people living with a disability and carers.
