Overview
The digital era needs digital solutions.
Digital solutions can prevent and manage healthcare issues faster and more effectively both at the personal and societal levels. E-health innovations are proved to promoting health and behaviour change in various health conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, etc. However, developing effective technological solutions for behaviour change requires an interdisciplinary approach. While the competence of designing and selecting effective technologies is essential, that is still incomplete without an understanding of evidence-based behavioural change theories and techniques. The Design of Digital Services for Health Behaviour Change course is offered at Tallinn University.
