As a student of industrial product design I have gotten used to making and fixing everything myself. If I run into a problem or a product breaks, I try to solve and repair it. If I couldn’t do it yet, I'd just learn how to. This led me to build my own house on wheels at the start of 2020. The complete …

In 2020 alone, 40.5 million people were newly displaced by conflict and disaster, many of them being arbitrarily displaced. In reality this number is even higher as it does not include displacement by large- development projects or displacement of those that were already displaced. Preventing arbitrary …

Background: The last decade has seen a substantial increase in the use of mobile health apps and research into the effects of those apps on health and health behaviors.
