PATh. practice - exchange - theory

Like a bridge, PATh is intended to connect experts from practice and science in and around Bochum in order to jointly design ways of participation for people with disabilities. By experts from practice, PATh means all people with disabilities or long-term illnesses and the people who work with them or advocate for them. This can be, for example, affected persons, interest groups, employers, professionals as well as institutions of disability care or health care. PATh offers free help and advice for questions from everyday life and practice using scientific approaches, for example in the form of surveys/interviews, observations, discussion rounds, health promotion offers or small research projects by students. We also accompany institutions, companies and municipalities in their design tasks on system and process level in the areas of inclusion and health promotion. If PATh cannot help, we look for suitable solutions and partners for the respective issue.
