So proud of our own Karan Shastri for leading our new publication "Working towards inclusion: Creating technology for and with people living with mild cognitive impairment or dementia who are employed", which outlines participatory design for inclusion of people living with mild cognitive impairment / early onset dementia (MCI/EOD) in technology development!! In this paper, we describe "lessons learned through the process of working with people with MCI/EOD through participatory methods is presented along with recommendations to foster an inclusive, respectful, and empowering experience for participants with MCI/EOD". Fanstastic work, Karan and the rest of the MCI@work team!

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is centralized within our Office of Indigenous Relations.
